Ascent Notes for: Commodus - 5.10a Average Rating : 4.38/5

feels harder than 10a. very delicate and technical. makes me wanna do maximus even more

Perfect arete climbing. Technical.

Ultimately liked this route, did the left side of arete, will try the right on next visit to the ranch. Reason: kind of fried my nerves clipping and climbing on the opposite sides of the arete, for the sake of really scrapped up legs, falling wasn't an option. Onsited, then went on through Maximus, fell twice trying to get to last clip and gave up.

This is a tricky route - you have to use both sides of the arete - I found the moves unusual - cool route though.

quality arete

Very delicate and lots of fun

The movement on this route was strange to me. It wasn't particularly unpleasant, but it definitely isn't one of my favorite HCR routes. Very pretty rock, though.

I don't usually like aretes but this was pure fun.

Technical and trust your feet!

this was the best of the day - out of the 4 10a-&-under on the Roman Wall - since it had the best protection from the rain. Fun moves for sure, not just balancy but committing a few times, the way I did it. Was glad to get that 2nd clip too, though it probably wasn't grounder-land like it felt like.
