| Sarchasm (8b+) | Brother may I have some oats? no. I am starving brother. As am I, brother. The tall skinny figure has thrown the oats at me. ME. BROTHER. I believe they have taken a liking to me. No brother, I have seen this before. I have observed many things. From the roaring beasts the tall skinny figures crawl inside of to travel far beyond the horizon, to how the figure weeped when the other had fallen into a deep sleep. And from my experiences I have learned that they will give extra oats to one us before taking them into the shed of no return. They will do terrible things inside that shed. LIES, THAT SHED IS WHERE THE CHOSEN GO TO DINE WITH OUT TALL SKINNY GODS. YOU ARE A FOOL BROTHER AND YOU SHALL BE LEFT BEHIND IN THE MUD WITH YOUR BACKWARDS IDEAS. NO, BROTHER. You must believe me. Share with me the oats and you will not reach the desired girth for the tall skinny ones. AHA! SO THIS WAS ALL A PLAN TO STEAL MY OATS. You truly are despicable brother. |

| Slocum's Spray (8b+) | 70 meter super pitch to the left of Etch-e Sketch. Physically probably only 8b or even 8a+, but the logistical complexities, placing all the gear (especially the mid crux .2), and fighting rope drag make it harder overall than Sarchasm and other routes on the wall imo. If I were British I'd call it E10 for maximum confusion. When the hoards descend they can flex with soft toggles and downgrades. My parents were avid sailors when they met, and this route is named in honor of them and my namesake Joshua Slocum. Slocum was the first person to sail around the world solo at the end of the 19th century. He eventually disappeared at sea in 1909 on his ship the Spray. |

| Raise the Main (8b) | New 40 meter all gear pitch to the right of Keel Haul and Yard Arms. Bit of crack tech low, lots of non-trivial climbing throughout, and then a fantastic bouldery finale. |

| Sarchasm (8b+) | tried it 6-ish years ago, then ~5 years ago, and finally went up twice with only 1 week in between! Crazy little route, gets you breathing with what feels like 3 distinct cruxes, fun day! |

| Etch-a-Sketch (7c+) | Excellent route, and an especially proud ground up effort by the FA team. The second pitch crux is by far the hardest bit of the route. The 5.12 pitch is more cryptic and bold than actually difficult...11c if it had a lot of bolts sprayed in it. Led all the pitches in flOSh style (given the online beta.) Fun day with Amity. |

| Telekinesis (8a) | short-lived crux, but the top does not let up, definitely a must-do; perhaps not as difficult with stiffer shoes |

| Etch-a-Sketch (7c+) | Did the crux pitch 2nd go with Rob Daniel, but didn't go to the very top, thanks to rain :-/ Exited to Bologna Pony as an escape. Still ticking it. P1 = cool, P2 (crux) = burly section through the roof & heady placements, P3 = smaller gear and heady, you don't see any of your gear until it's right in front of you, kind of wild! |
