● Dung Fu
Apr 25, 2026 · Follow. Followed the Crack to the cove where the chimney was. There was a large nest looking situation of some kind where the chimney moves would be. Partner had an injured ankle so lead from here going out onto the Arete to avoid the potential nest situation. Fun climb would like to go back to do the chimney moves.

● The Irritators
Apr 25, 2026 · TR. Guide thought it was this one, seemed very easy for a 5.7plus. We use her (guides) TR for a quick warm up on it. Looks like we may have gone up dress rehearsal at the top instead of the slab, no wonder it was so easy : )

● Fisticuffs
Apr 25, 2026 · TR. Only part as TR was not set up safely. Can't wait to go back. Need 2 #4s and a 3 plus chicken head for TR and Directional. Walk up to the top and look for rhe chicken head to find the Crack for the TR, sling the chicken head for protection

● Invisibility Lessons
Feb 28, 2026 · Follow. Easy walk up/off to set up TR anchor to practice this. I didn't like this Crack but it would be good practice in a lot of ways. The lie back at the beginning was really hard for me(had to be on tight TR), escaping the alcove they say is the crux but for me it was theove past that with too small of thin hands to make another move. Hung on rope a lot. Once you get to the left turn it was smooth sailing Crack to the top but the start, going out onto the arete from the alcove, and moving past the left moving Crack, was all really challenging for me and it would be good to work that on TR.

● Continuum
Feb 28, 2026 · Follow. Fell, hung, need to work on right foot placement to make fwd progress in the right leaning flaring Crack 2/3 way up. Start was slippery. Needed to be pulled up in widening flaring Crack area. Can easily access top to make the anchor, rap and work it on TR. Didn't like this Crack but would be good practice as I need to work on feet out of a Crack especially in the wide part. Liked the 9 to the right better. In shade all day.

● Ride the Lightning
Feb 23, 2026 · Lead / Fell/Hung. Lead until there were two bolts left, it was dark and the crux for me, I came down and my partner stick clipped the last two bolts and the anchor. Used the anchor to climb the unknown Crack to the right, which was absolutely a fantastic fun crack!
