Ascents by Jacques Beaudoin having Distinct route

Failed the Alzheimer onsight slipping out anchor finger lock, went down easy second on pre-placed gear. I onsighted this 13 years ago I guess I'm getting old...

Very good! Even the start slab is great!

Very pleasant climb, good fun!

not the best warm up, found a few bits hard to read, the beta from Aaron "I think Neil grunted through this bit..." doesn't disqualify my onsight.

Just flashed the 25 bit and stopped at anchor under roof, bloody good climb!

Repeat on Fanny's gear to clean the climb for his redpoint.

My second 27 onsight! Conditions were unfairly good and I kept on trucking making only few reading mistakes that I could recover from. Albeit inconsistent in difficulty, this climb delivers great moves all the way up on fantastic holds.

Sooo good, I had to come back a few times over the years to get the crux sorted. Most of the climb is 3-4 grades easier than the crux section but for some reasons it's still exciting and it climbs so well. I rate this climb and will do it again.

Warming up for Haystack Madness ;-)

Hybrid simul climb, Anton lead the first half, I lead the second. Was quickly over.

Was and epic battle. All trad gear pre-placed. Very, very unique climb. Such an improbable line.

So good!

Fantastic!

Amazing rock features with amazing texture

Second shot with all gear pre-placed, first shot was epic with passive gear pre-placed and felt soooo much harder, I gave up when placing a bad #5 breathing in a chunky gain of sand. The climb still needs a lot of cleaning.

First Free Ascent. What a line, what a climb! First shot of the day, boom!

Saved this one for the onsight, I let Rick rap down the fix line first and I took off the draws he needed to reach belay station on my way down trying not to look too much. Unfortunately fell off at second draw, rookie mistake... lowered and climbed the whole thing in an ascent very close to an onsight. Very happy with my effort, I found this climb mentally challenging but pushed through uncertainty and kept on marching. Absolutely fantastic climb and an ascent forging mental strength and lifetime memories. Just another great day out with my mate Rick!

Alzheimer Flash, I didn't remember any moves from few years ago attempt. Lucky I could rest every 2 moves, 3-4 cruxes got me thinking and I had to push quite hard, didn't cruise it. Memorable ascent. Grateful there were long slings pre-placed on few crux bolts. Didn't find the runouts outrageous as they are on easier sections. New belay bolts are great.

Could Flash this with Neil's long draw to protect the hard move. Would be mentally much harder placing gear.

Second shot, messed up the onsight getting into the roof after all that struggle on the slab.

Redpoint to first anchor which is at 25m so not the redpoint of the real P1

Epic onsight on my warm up, fantastic climb

First Free Ascent. Few years in the making, still have to come back to redpoint

Warmed up doing the onsight attempt and it almost worked but I missed a hold to the right on the slabby section towards the top and grabbed awful footholds and retreated downclimbing to good double-crimp tried to recover and went again the same way thinking it would work... Flopped on the bolt. Julie gave me the beta and I cruised to the top. Got it second shot. Most holds are amazing on this climb (except the footer that got me ;-)

FFA. Fun and exhilarating

Two decent falls and few hangs, this thing is nails for 25, footwork is quite tricky.

Felt nails first shot, was a breeze second shot

FFA. It all started one day I run up Work Injury and my little one says: why you stop here Papa? You're not at the top! I looked up and replied, fair enough, why is the climb stopping here???

Did the crux static

Really liked this one Super steep juggy 3D climbing setting the pump in for the crux at the very top

Found the start hard to onsight, it made me grunt a bit

Very interesting climbing

Felt quite easy for the grade

Nice moves

Who would have thought I would love slab climbing???

This climb hasn't been manufactured to my body length... seriously I was shocked by the number of drilled holds and the way they have been made, I mean a gym hold looks more natural.

FFA. Exceptional climb, hard to put a grade on this but it really doesn't matter, def felt harder than 25. The FFA was pink point. Zac Vertees subsequently sent it placing gear

Second shot, was far from onsight
