The Trapps The Uberfall | ||||||
5.6 | ★ Wrist - with Kate Pechenkina | 70m | ||||
P1 mildly terrifying in the vertical crack. Lucky I still had a blue cam. P2 traverse was the hardest thing I've ever done OMG terrifying. Maybe did it wrong?
|
||||||
5.7 | The Bridal Path - with Kate Pechenkina | |||||
Accidentally went left too early on Horseman. A bit scary and didn't extend enough, so much rope drag.

5.6 | ★★ Frog's Head - with Kate Pechenkina, Jasson | 52m | ||||

5.9 | ★ Nice 5.9 Climb - with Paul | 21m | ||||
Rested once. Could probably have flashed if it weren't so dark and I could see the feet. 😢
|
||||||
5.6 | ★ The Brat - with Kate Pechenkina, Fran | 21m | ||||
Led with some pre-placed gear but backed up some of it and added my own. Not as bad as CC Route. Belayed follower from above.
|
||||||
5.7 | ★★ CC Route - with Kate Pechenkina, Fran | 18m | ||||
Pretty difficult. Wouldn't want to lead yet. We used the big ring for belay and rappel, but don't do that. Go higher and there is spot for gear anchor. Big cam isn't necessary, but is a good idea.
|
||||||
5.7 | ★★ Laurel — 3 attempts - with Kate Pechenkina, Fran | 15m | ||||
Such a mess. Couldn't do 2nd move. Stupidly thought I didn't need big cams and left them behind. Had belayer send up two C4s on accessory cord so I could finish it.

Cool, went left of big protrusion and there was a little sketchy bit grabbing some crystals
|
||||||
5.9 | No Rest For The Wicked - with Kate Pechenkina, Jasson | 27m | ||||
Clean on second attempt. Once you know the moves it's not bad. Jasson had better beta for the beached whale. Up the right side is thin but fine.
|

5.9 | No Rest For The Wicked - with Kate Pechenkina, Jasson | 27m | ||||
2 parts I got stuck on and 1 that was sketchy chimney beached whale
|

5.8 PG13 | Back To The Wall - with Kate Pechenkina, Jasson | 18m | ||||
Up the arête of shark tooth and then across to wall, left at white part, but also left around the top which was easy slab

Clean after a few attempts. Crimpy holds, especially one side crimp.
|

5.7 | ★★ Laurel - with Paul, Fran | 15m | ||||
Tried the first move a few times without a rope, and Fran placed the first cam before bailing, but still counting as a flash. First few moves are very polished slippery glass feet.

- with

Slung a tree in a sort of muddy crack area. There was a tree with a rap ring but I just clipped it and kept going, since Gunks App said to belay from the middle of the wall.
2
Went off-route left on P2, same as following last time. Route over overhanging blocks was licheny so I thought I was remembering wrong, but it was right. Sad that I didn't do it.
3
P3 roof is not 5.5; WTF Gunks App? Multiple places with minimal feet, slipped twice, and then not great gear after pulling roof; just stabbing in cams blindly | |||||

5.5 G | ★ Black Fly - with Christian | 32m | ||||
Pretty easy. Went right up to the tree instead of left as Gunks App shows. Anchor around tree branch was not great; would be bad if it broke. Better to wrap cord multiple times for friction.

Super sketched out on dihedral to triangle roof, slimy holds, no feet, not many parallel cracks. Did 5.1 variation but it's not 5.1! Traverse is harder than the previous 5.1 pitch. Rapped in the dark because poor judgment. | 76m | ★ Good | |||

5.3 | ★ Chips and Salsa - with Kate | 64m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Led to the P1 awkward belay. Two bolts and a piton, with two more bolts and chains a few feet away for the next climb over. Kate followed, we set up TR for next climb over, then I climbed up and set up TR for further right climb, then continued through chimney and then stayed right on the scrambling slab with a mud wasp nest (?) in a big roof. Not sure where the end is, never saw bolts for P2, it just transitions into scrambling around the top. TheCrag topo goes left after chimney instead? Spent a lot of time trying to find the way down. Rapped off The Oasis?
