| Olive Oil Juniper Canyon Red Rocks |

5.7 ***** | Really fun, easy route. A few exposed sections. Only my second multi-pitch, and my first time leading on a multi-pitch. We did this in four pitches with some simul-climbing, and I… more |

5.8 ***** | Excellent route. Fairly long and very exposed for only three pitches. The last pitch, on very varnished sandstone, is particularly interesting. Several times my shoes squeaked on… more |

IV 5.8+ ***** | Incredibly beautiful route, incredible exposure on the last several pitches, and just a perfect day altogether. Definitely the high point (literally and figuratively) of my… more |

5.10a ***** | Great route. We swapped leads the whole way, but even with the odd number of pitches, we each got to lead the same amount, because I accidentally combined pitches 5 and 6. That was… more |
| Sour Mash Black Velvet Canyon Red Rocks |
Fri, Apr 2 2004 |
5.10a ***** | Excellent route. Again we swapped leads the whole way. I enjoyed this one a little more than Wild Turkeys, partly because I got some really fun leads: a small 5.8 roof on pitch 2,… more |
| Epinephrine Black Velvet Canyon Red Rocks |

IV/V 5.9 ***** | An all-time classic. A little bit of everything on this one: chimneying, crack, liebacking, and beautiful face climbing. We did the 4th-class alternative start to get past another… more |
| Varnishing Point Pine Creek Canyon Red Rocks |
Fri, Nov 19 2004 |
5.8 **** | This was quite a fun one, albeit totally easy. I led the first (trivial) pitch, then Aaron led the second. We realized later that Aaron left one of my biners at the top, so we had… more |

5.9 **** | This was a fantastic climb. Really awesome. |
| Varnishing Point Pine Creek Canyon Red Rocks |
Fri, Nov 19 2004 |
5.8 **** | Climbed this one again, to rescue on of my biners that was left at the top. This time, I led the whole thing in one pitch. |
| The Black Orpheus Oak Creek Canyon Red Rocks |

III 5.9+ **** | Really nice, fairly long climb. The lower pitches are just okay, but the excellent upper pitches are well worth it. I got to lead the crux, which is definitely not 5.10a as the… more |

5.6 ***** | Trip report coming soon... |
| Solar Slab Gully Oak Creek Canyon Red Rocks |
Tue, Mar 29 2005 |
5.3 *** | We were going to do Johnny Vegas to get up to the base of Solar Slab, but of course there were crowds, so we did this instead. We simul-climbed the whole thing all at once. It's… more |
| Solar Slab Oak Creek Canyon Red Rocks |

5.6 ***** | This was really fun, and quite easy. We mostly simul-climbed, allowing us to link lots of pitches, so we did all but the last pitch in two pushes. Then Aaron led the last pitch,… more |

5.6 R ***** | We were going to do Eagle Dance on this day, but it just didn't happen. After a LONG hike in and an equally long and much more HOT hike out, we decided to cruise up Johnny Vegas.… more |
| Geronimo Juniper Canyon Red Rocks |
Thu, Mar 23 2006 |
5.6 **** | This was fun, but quite a traffic jam. When we reached the base, there were three other parties (one a party of three) ahead of us, and one more couple showed up just behind us.… more |
| Refried Brains Black Velvet Canyon Red Rocks |
Fri, Mar 24 2006 |
5.9 **** | This was an excellent route. Aaron led pitches 1 and 3, and I led 2 and 4. Aaron absolutely loved pitch 3. Also, note that it really didn't require any wide gear or offwidth… more |
| Overhanging Hangover (Rock was wet) Black Velvet Canyon Red Rocks |
Fri, Mar 24 2006 |
5.10a **** | After Refried Brains, we still had plenty of time left in the day, so we roped up to do this short one, a climb we'd been wanting to do ever since we rappelled over this giant roof… more |
| Wholesome Fullback Black Velvet Canyon Red Rocks |
Sat, Mar 25 2006 |
5.10a ***** | Sweet sweet sweet! I led the first pitch of this, and even though it's only 5.10a, I might consider it one of my prouder onsights. This didn't feel like typical Red Rocks “soft”… more |

5.8- ***** | Another traffic jam... this time cold and windy, and we didn't get down until after dark. |
| Prince of Darkness Black Velvet Canyon Red Rocks |
Mon, Mar 27 2006 |
5.10c ***** | We've been wanting to climb this ever since our first trip to Red Rocks together, over two years ago. Every time we were going to do it, something came up. Finally, we got to… more |

5.10a **** | This climb, though short, is another one that we have been wanting to do for quite a while. Basically, ever since we rapped off of Sour Mash two years ago and saw a few bolts… more |
