Onsight ascent by:
Interesting climb
Enjoyable enough; I went straigth up the entire bolt line which is more difficult than going to the right, somewhere around the 5th bolt or so (?). Bit of a dynamic move with a hand jam, never have done that before.

Interesting climbing
As mentioned, it wanders and is not the "crimp"-event that I was hoping for. Clipping stances were wierd. Decent rock quality though, I was simply expecting a different kind of climb.

Nice climb
Hard not to do the Raven, but this variation is pretty fun.

Second ascent by:
Great crack / corner
Not easy after the ledge, the fall potential had me seconding the route since my foot is already injured from a bike crash, but it was a very cool trad-strength type climb with good jams and stemming. The initial crux move is hard with potential to hit a ledge, pg 13 for that.

Flash ascent by:
Better routes on this cliff
This route is OK, less interesting than the other 11's of higher quality in the same area. Worth doing while waiting for another route. I did this the hard way, almost fell but pulled it off.

Good warm up on Spiney
Did not know what this was upon climbing, thought maybe it was a 5.7 but the last couple of moves are a bit more difficult. A fun flake to play on, worthy warm up. Very easy climbing most of the way, I call it a 5.7 but since my climbing partners all thought the end was hard, a 5.8.

A little Sporty, but nice holds in all the right places
Don't let the bolt spacing keep you off, it's a worthy route for it's grade, the top is really fun. Good solid 10b holds.
