Ascent Notes for: Bonehead - 5.10c Average Rating : 2.75/5

After a month in Yosemite (and then a month of no climbing) I was able to send this clean. I hadn't tried this one since I hung on it last year. The crux this time was a little lower for me, but I kept moving so I got through the upper crux quickly enough to stay on.

I made the mistake of getting on this 5.10c after climbing 5.10c/d's in Boulder Canyon. I got super pumped on the layback side pulls and at the crux had absolutely no forearm strength left. I had to hang on the rope for a minute before finishing. This was my first climb that I didn't get on my first attempt without rests or falls.

I think the guidebook gives this something like 5.10a. I thought it was just as hard if not harder than the 5.11a right of it. Lots of weird sort of sidepull crimps and weird moves that get you pumped to an akward mantle finish.

...

5.8 for the first couple of moves, 10c the rest of the way on slopers with a wierd fall line

Fun sport route, the moves at the top are good, too bad it doesn't have a better anchor (only shuts)
