Red Point ascent by: madscientist on 2001-11-25 (View Climbing Log)

Great long problem.

I really enjoy this problem since I like longer boulder problems. There is a block which looks like it might fall out any year, but is pretty stuck in place.

More than just two moves.

There are two ways to finish the problem. Straight up, or finish on Skunk Rub.

Tricky bottom and pumpy top.

The bottom move is tricky, and the route sticks with you for longer than you might think. Never placed the tri-cam, but some might want a piece between the last two bolts. Chain anchor at the top. The route is a little dirty right now, but once it cleans up it get a rating of 4.

Top Rope ascent by: madscientist on 2006-11-12 (View Climbing Log)

Cool route and one of the best in the area.

Decided to top rope the route since I was unsure about how loose the rock might be after 7 years. Did it clean the second go. My partner knocked off a large rock while climbing, so an TR was not a bad idea. However, the rock is generally solid. The anchor is missing a chain, so one needs a sling to rap.

Good climb with a great crux.

I generally like to start heading to the Ginger Snap anchors right after the last bolt. The rock quality is a little suspect after the large rock fall in the area.

One hard move.

I have done the crux three different ways. With the dyno (most fun), static (hardest), and going way out left (easiest, but off line). Will want to bring tri-cams for the moves to the anchors.

Good sport climb.

Got the third ascent of this line. This line was bolted at night, thus the name Midnight Run.

Wild block.

The route first climbs to the top of a large block, then goes up and slightly right. I finished on the left side of the arete up top, which, I believe, is less difficult climbing than the right side of the arete. Another heady Henly route. Don't fall from the top while on lead.

Fun roof moves.

This is a good route with a great short and easy roof. The upper section takes gear, and the rock quality is a little suspect.
