● Wiessner Route
Oct 12, 2024 · 3 pitches. Lead / Onsight. P1 - 150 ft Crux is the 30 for off the ground. 5.6. Challenging move protects well.

Sep 16, 2023 · Follow. Sweet climb put up by Plattsburgh expeditionary study students. Gracious enough to let me follow. Amazing roof crack up high, great jams, nice smearing. very sweet!

Sep 14, 2023 · Follow. Fun, nice movement. Great view of Chapel pond and exposure. Went up with Hal and Luana, locals of Saranac. Had a great day together. Luana had the Flash, brought Hal and I up. September 2023.

● The Diagonal
Oct 22, 2022 · Lead / Redpoint. Solid. Only did P1 because running out of daylight, which is a shame because P2 is the money pitch. Still beautiful day out. The start of P1 has a small overhang that protects well.

● Four Sheets to the Wind
Sep 21, 2021 · Lead / Redpoint. Mostly cams, maybe a stopper or two. Trickiest section is transitioning from the slanted crack to the face/slab. Pulling the first "roof" crack is well protected an easy if jammed properly. The top is fun and easily protected. If you're climbing well at or above the grade the top feels "easy" once you start moving. If you're pushing into 5.9 the top will seem intimidating, you just need to place good pro and keep moving, you'll find it's surprising manageable so long as you keep moving and don't pump yourself out.
