Despite paranoia that the wet rock police would come slash our tyres in the carpark, tony and i got up for sunrise brekky and tore into the park for the '1 to 3 hour' approach - 2:50 and we were booking it.. MP sandbaggers. We took tonys new tag line up apparently to tag a single jumper, but it came in handy on the way down when the estimated 72m rope turned out to be sub-70 and we had to beaner-block to get down. An approach first for both of us when tonys jacket loosely perched on top of his pack on the walkout got poached by a tree branch without him realizing till 15 min down the trail! It makes sense to ramble on about the approach cos it was half the day and featured some fun rock hopping in a beautiful canyon but being lyn hills favourite rock climb carries expectation and this route lived up to it. Absolute moves the whole way and the fang roof on p2 is insane. Im quite surprised and stoked to come away with the all onsight/clean despite 3 holds disintegrating on the final pitch and a bunch of other parts that could have gone either way. Spirits were high the whole day despite some backpacks being gnawed into by squirrels and a pack of HEB cookies was demolished dangerously quickly back at hotel contagion.

Lead pitches 3+4,6,8+9,12. Linking pitches 3+4 with 60m ropes requires some meters of simul climbing! Great face climb on super structured solid sandstone. Cruised the route except waiting for some hours because of a slow party in front. Rappelled within 1h.

A grand day out in immaculate weather and with excellent company but the route itself doesn’t live up to the reputation. The first pitch is quite good, a burly warm up. Pitch two is fun but a one move wonder, I linked this into pitch three which was also fun. Pitch four was okay but not memorable, pitch five is excellent but massively over bolted and pitch six and seven have surprisingly hard climbing on ever decreasing rock quality which was uninspiring. I linked six and seven and massively ran out of quick draws which was exciting. We rapped off from here rather than face the choss above. I really wasn’t a fan of how this route was equipped. The apparent ethic of bolt where it’s hard, not where’s it’s dangerous seemed dumb and felt really contrived, the best example of this being a fist jam from which you can clip three bolts. I still had an excellent time though and the climbing is good enough to still make it worthwhile, despite the bad equipping and the less than ideal rock quality.

55mph winds added some spice to this long adventure route with a distinct possibility of sleeping the night on route. P 1-3 were fun. 4-7 were travel routes across a sea of broken rock. P8,9&10 are the money pitches with fantastic and exposed climbing. A great sense OD accomplishment to finish. The approach and descent are difficult and long. Party of 2, reasonable pace climbing, 12 hours car to car.

Led all the harder pitches. Good classic. Liked the 1st, 2nd and 5th pitches best. Stupid belay after p5. Why not continue another 15/20 m and climb the entire crack??? So, be smart and take 20 draws and finish the crack the way it should be done.

could only get to the first 2 pitches, as others in group were feeling hot and wanted to bail. will make sure to bring only ONE heat- resistant partner if doing this in the summertime again. If you don't keep moving, your feet start to feel pretty toasty, but otherwise not bad if you are used to beeng out in the desert in summer. the scenery here is just gorgeous. this route is easy, but beautiful and fun. during the high season, it is reportedly a veritable freeway, as it is one of two routes that one must take to get to the base of Solar Slab. we were trying to avoid the crowds, but had issues with members of our group not HYDRATING ENOUGH, and not BOTHERING TO EAT BEFORE THE APPROACH. It is a total bummer doing a rather warm, 1 hour approach, only to have people not prepared and telling you "i'm done" when you have just barely started.
