Turbocharger (6c+) Thought this was really hard. Greasy crimp sequence feels miles easier with good temps and a brush.

Phlegmish Dance (5b) 5.8 Trad Led into this from Mosquito. This was more tricky to figure out - placed 6 pieces on this shorter section!

Smoke Bluff Connection (6a) Fun Romp out there with Hec on our lunch break. Thanks to the French couple who let us go first. Sad to say it took me 16 years to get around to doing this. :p

Smoke Bluff Connection (5b) this was my second trad route ever, as well as my second multipitch anything.. i had no idea really what i was getting into. just blindly/faithfully wife-ing. couldn't do the slippery slabby 10a part so we took a different way up to the traverse saga.. don't remember exactly which but it was directly to the left of the intended pitch. ended up being windy and well, a slightly overhanging traverse as i remember it. not being able to hear P, having just theoretical notions about how the whole workflow, gear placement/seconding/falling dynamics went.. fumbling around removing gear, and the exposure... mini internal freakout ensued, with some tears at the surface. made it though.. can't objectively give it stars as i don't remember much other than the terror. :)
