Dr. Rubo's Wild Ride
With Brooke from Boston. Led all the pitches, first two of which were truly stellar. Deserving of inclusion in the triple crown of Sedona. The way we rapped it was climbers left a full 200'. Maybe 40 yrd walk back to base of route. The other side of notch is a shorter rap with a little longer walk back. Afterwards, snuck in behind it to do Santa's Chimney...which is crappy rock, but in an incredible setting. Can't really recommend that one though.

Rubbo's or Roobo's?
Fun route with good rock. I found the face climbing following the second pitch handcrack to be the crux and most heady section. The summit pitch is classic with the mantle in the sky.

great climb
seemed more 'hand crack in the back of an offwidth/ squeeze chimney', than it was 'hand crack'. still an amazing route and very fun....and sandbagged!
