Ascent Notes for: Romancing the Stone - 5.10c Average Rating : 3.95/5

Nice climg. No falls. Will lead next time.

A little steep for me as a warm up, especially when the rock is as cold as it was that morning. I hung at the first three bolts, then completed the rest in one push. Came back later and climbed it cleanly on TR. Will return soon to redpoint.

5/15/2004 - returned to redpoint, took some hangs again. grr. this route is sustained!

I'd never redpointed above .9+ outdoors before, having done most of my hard route climbing in the gym. Circumstances placed us at the 5.8 crag that day, so I decided to give a burn on the easiest route that we knew of (no guidebook), and managed a flash. A seriously rad route too! Stoked.

i dont really know the date

Pumpy but wonderful.

Followed up and cleaned the draws... wasn't fun on a pumpy route like that. By the fourth bolt up I couldn't close my hand around the draw to unclip it so I found a nice hands-free rest and hung out there until I didn't suck completely.

nice though.

5/02 - TR Hangdog. 4/15/03 - Hangdog (couple tries). Keep getting spit off by the moves near the last bolt. Got to go back and climb this.
