Ascents in Updraft Area

Rapped down to the GT after Moonlight, then seconded. We did this a single pitch.

2 pitch is great

1st pitch is relatively easy and lulls you into a false sense of security and the 2nd pitch has a run out traverse on old pitons that is nicely exposed and feels harder then 5.6 mentally.

Interesting moves to get past the sling salad on P2, getting into the chimney, followed by the "fun" of squeezing your way up it. OK - the sheer joy of exiting, then!

led p1, then started leading p2, went off route, fell and broke my ankle

Only did P1, had to bail at beginning of P2

sweet chimney

I loved this route

O.K. was scary because it was wet, climbed it anyway.

Fun crux on first pitch gets heart pumping, trust your feet and layback.

Followed C. Nippert up 1st Pitch Only.

Fun!

not to be missed.

Awesome climb! I got a little off route on the second pitch and tried pulling a ridiculous (mini) roof. Be really careful about rope drag as this route weaves and has a long traverse at the end. Bob 2nding.

Narrow chimney

Not finished because leader did Direct finish

Wow Mental Exoposure!

1st pitch only
