First Nose climb
Nice pro. Great climbing. Only managed first two pitches before we had to bail due to a late start. Will top out next time. Second belay stance is crappy for footing, but makes for a good last-chance double-rope rappel.

Better Than the Nose
Lead all four pitches. The second and start of the third pitches were the most fun. The pro was actually quite good even though it seemed sparse at times. Excellent moderate route that I would highly recommend.

First experience leading eyebrows at this level. Lead first three pitches, then seconded to the parking lot and took the 4th class variation to the summit. Amazing rock quality with unique NC features.
