Airy Aria
May 18, 2026 · 1 pitch. Lead / Onsight. Only did first pitch. Felt very sustained - Greg followed. Agreed. Excited to come back for second when it is less hot.

Northern Pillar
May 18, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. Andy, Greg, and I climbed together. Andy led Pitch 1. I did pitch 2, Andy led pitch 3. Greg followed up and I belayed him on a micro each pitch which he loved. Used two ropes to rap to the ground in one go which was nice.
Trad 3 pitches

Rusty Trifle
May 17, 2026 · Lead. Led all three. First time climbing with Andy. Fun three pitches. used tree anchors each time. With my own slings not the community rap anchors. Placed a lot of gear in my opinion, mostly for Andy‘s benefit. Lots of nuts! Rappelled off city lights - bit of a walk but not bad.

Sixish
May 17, 2026 · Lead. Andy led pitch one. I led pitch two and three. It was my first time leading pitch 2, so fun. Forgot about the hands on the outside of the roof on pitch three. Want to try using them next time feel like it would make it less cramped under the roof.

Red Cabbage
Mar 25, 2026 · Lead / Fell/Hung. Fell at crux before moving around the arete. Felt like I could have made it had I not struggled with route finding and down climbing to place that piece. Who knows. Maybe moving more thoughtfully and using a “take” rest instead of falling would have been smoother.
