Grey Matter (8a+) Roughly 8 sessions. Thanks Kacy and Will for the support. It was a perfect day, strong NE winds and the hike in. Was undecided on whether to try, but after touching the warm ups I knew I had a chance. Great route with a very cool crux with some wild beta. The only detractor is the location of this route - water bottles, garbage rain down with regularity. Regardless, stoked to have put this away prior to September!

Big Kahuna (8b) Bouldery, crimpy and lot's of variety! There's even a dyno - which isn't too too hard, coming from someone who generally doesn't know how to jump. Getting the foot up over the roof was by far the hardest move.

The Ego Effect (7b+) Newer route bolted by Mike Smythe. Really fun cimbing through steep rock on jugs. Boulder problem crux in the roof. You go completely horizontal. Really good!

Omission Bias (7c+) Fantastic route! Fun gym climbing with some pretty good rest to a cool boulder problem up high pulling over the lip. Then some enjoyable easy slab to the top of the cliff :) 3rd go.
