4 out of 5 stars Skyline Arete, left variation

Always a ledge when you need it. If you're going to do the left variation, use longer draws.

2 out of 5 stars Empathy Ascent

Still not totally clear how this route is supposed to go. All the guides that I've seens say to go follow the bolts (obviously) but how far the right and how far to the left are off? The further right you are, the easier it is. I stayed just right of the bolts and I'd give it a 5.10b.

4 out of 5 stars Varnishing Point Ascent

Lead Both Pitches. First trad lead where I have felt a sense of accomplishment due to sustained style (finally something other than short one move routes). Took the arete side. Lots of fun. Coming out of the roof section was exciting. Sandy upper crack. Scary times were had for mr_fantastic.

4 out of 5 stars 60 seconds . . .

Once you get out above the treeline, this route feels nice and exposed. Plenty of length, too.

4 out of 5 stars Desperado . . . why don't you come to your senses . . .

For some reason I could never get myself to go straight up over the second bolt, only the 5.7 variation. Also, if you try to do this route shortly after a rain, you will end up leaving gear :(

Was I supposed to go up the face, or up the right corner and traverse out onto the face?

3 out of 5 stars Poison Oak Crack

One of my first onsite trad climbs :-) Lots of fun and no poison oak to be seen. A fun, if more difficult variation off the same anchors is to climb the face directly to the right of the crack without using the crack (goes at about 5.9-ish). Good times.
