Silkworm
Lost Horse (Freeway Wall)
Sat, Oct 27
2007
5.6 1 pitch
I led.


Started with a long scramble up a gulley. The actual 5.6 crack after that was pretty good, but short. I just stayed at the top and belayed the others up from there, since it just… more

5.8 *** 3 pitches
We did it in 2.
I led 2.
A very good climb. The traverse down and left on the last pitch seems like a less aesthetic variation than continuing straight up the crack (going straight up is “Roan Way”, which… more
Mare's Tail
Lost Horse (Lost Horse Wall)

5.9 * 3 pitches
We did it in 2.
I led 2.
This was fun, and only had a few slightly tricky spots. It did have a slightly scary section, where there was a large block sticking out of the wide crack, and you had almost no… more
B-1
Quail Springs (Trashcan Rock)
Sat, Jan 12
2008
5.1 * 1 pitch
I followed.
We did this just so Janet could practice placing gear and building anchors. She placed one nut and three cams. The first placement (a #13 Stopper) was completely and utterly… more

This was a very fun, albeit short, climb.
Free As Can Be
Stirrup Tank (Zippy Rock)
Sat, Mar 8
2008
5.7 1 pitch
I followed.
This was a good little route, and Janet's gear placements were much better than the last time I saw her lead. They still weren't perfect, but very good.
Die Young
Stirrup Tank (Zippy Rock)

5.9 1 pitch
I led.
This was an interesting little route. It was really more of a slab climb than a crack, but with a shallow seam for gear.
Gargoyle
Stirrup Tank (Zippy Rock)

5.6 1 pitch
I followed.
This is an outstanding amazing excellent hand crack, and deserves at least three stars. Janet led it with no trouble at all, and her gear placements were very good.
Peter Easter Pumpkin Eater (Start was hard!)
Stirrup Tank (Stirrup Rock)
Sat, Mar 8
2008
5.10c 1 pitch
I led.
There's NO way the start of this thing is only .10c, unless I missed some serious beta or something. The line itself looked quite striking from a distance, when I saw it from the… more
Do Or Dike

5.9 1 pitch
I led.
This was an odd but fun climb, up a steep dike/crack kinda thing.
Jugular Vein
Stirrup Tank (Stirrup Rock)
Sat, Mar 8
2008
5.8 1 pitch
I led.
A very pretty line, and a lot of fun. I fully believe several of the climbs in this area, including this one, deserve a star or three, but I think the area was rarely visited at… more
New Toy
Stirrup Tank (Stirrup Rock)

5.6 1 pitch
I followed.
This was fun and easy, and Janet led it without any difficulties.
Jessica's Crack
Sheep Pass (Hall of Horrors)
Sun, Mar 9
2008
5.6 1 pitch
I led.
Janet started up this, but bailed when it got really wide near the top. From the beginning it seemed like her head wasn't really in it. Her gear placements were mostly very good… more
Lazy Day
Sheep Pass (South Horror Rock)
Sun, Mar 9
2008
5.7 ** 1 pitch
I led.
Janet again started up the first few feet of this, but her head just wasn't in it again, so I took over.
Jaws
Sheep Pass (Hall of Horrors)
Sun, Mar 9
2008
5.6 R *** 1 pitch
I led.
I saw this in the book, and someone we were talking to recommended it, despite the R rating. It was definitely VERY runout, but a good introduction to easy chimneying. I placed a… more
Diamond Dogs
Sheep Pass (Hall of Horrors)
Sun, Mar 9
2008
5.10a *** 1 pitch
I led.
This was excellent, and I'm really glad I finally got to climb something a little bit hard on this trip. Aaron and I had looked at this a few years ago, and I don't remember why we… more
