Momofuku (5b) Nice, juggy climbing up the groove at the top of the cliff.

Nice, juggy climbing up the groove at the top of the cliff.
The HUANGdog (5c) The first pitch is cool and burly - not your average face-climbing clip-up. We thought it felt a bit hard for 5.8, but consensus will tell. The upper pitch is super cruisy in comparison.

Salty Wine Over Asian Climbs (6a) Cool upper traversing pitch. Tricky moves across the steep face.

All Your Booty are Belong to Us (5c+) Nice final pitch over the top.

Nice final pitch over the top.
Fukumi Ramen (6c+) The second pitch is the business with a few technical cruxes. Chalk would make this much easier to on-sight. Without it, the holds in the crux areas are very hard to spot. All three pitches are of very good quality.

The Great Big Carjack Off (6a) First pitch was very tricky for the grade. Chalk and tick marks would make a huge difference. Without chalk, the holds are very hard to find. Second pitch is cruisy jug-hauling.

Sprint Format (7a+) Followed helpful tick marks all the way to the upper crux, where they completely disappeared. Could not see an obvious way forward, probably a result of my fast-building pump. Flamed out and fell...

Pit Lane (6c) Almost blew it right at the top. Started improvising when I ran out of obvious options. Pretty hard to comment on the grade when you're as out of shape as I am, but felt a bit hard to be 11a...

Pepé Le Pew (6c) Fell trying to pass the final bolt when I went the wrong way and got pumped out of my mind. That's what a summer of no sport climbing will do to you. A great route in two halves: a low section of slopey tech followed by a steep, pumpy headwall.

Sylvester (6b) Technical, slopey and intricate all at the same time. A good pitch on very nice stone.

Ants in the Pants (5c) Smooth, bulbous rock. Very nice stone, but not heavily featured.

Roadrunner (5b+) Surprisingly tricky crux at the third bolt. Otherwise, nice moderate climbing.
