Aug 22, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. Haj linked first two pitches and I led the 3rd. Nicely featured climbing. We set up a tr on something 11ish just to the left.

● Red Dihedral (aka "Yggdrasil")
Aug 18, 2026 · 8 pitches. Lead / Fell/Hung. First climb of the trip w/haj. The altitude gassed me. Hiked in 5am start with camping gear. Got on the route about 9am. I felt tired and shaky but felt better and better the higher we got. I led dihedral pitch (hung like 3 times) and the head wall splitter crack which was fun. Walk off down the gully was pretty unstable due to a rock slide a few weeks before. Camped that night and had a rest day… hike up to the lakes. Then we stashed gear there to come back for positive vibes.

● Cliff Dweller
Jul 5, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. Interesting climb, the big corner and roof is awesome, except for some choss. Upper pitch is wild. Bolting is weird. To keep at 5.7, you go way right and traverse in with a bolt below you. For follower, going this way risks a large pendulum fall. Told Brooke to not go that way and try to climb the notch instead, which I didn’t climb but looked like 5.10ish?

● Gneiss Jugs
Jul 5, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. W/brooke, made it the first pitch, then climbed cave dwellers after. Rock was sandy/exfoliating down low, but improved higher up. Second to last bolt creates drag on the rope. Probably best to belay from above because the anchors are set back from the face.

Jul 5, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. W/brooke. Started to get a bit warm by the time we got on it, around 1pm? Nice edges and movement and some tricky bulges
