| Sister Sledge (7a) |
5 Nov 2023
| |||||
| Southwest Ridge (5b) | 12 pitches. 14.5 hours car to car. With Mark. Mark led pitches 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, & 12; I led pitches 3, 4, 6, 9, & 11. We unroped for pitch 8. I clipped loose and rusted pitons, slung trees, almost pulled a microwave-sized block onto myself, wiggled up strange slabby off-widths—in other words, had a full-on Sandia day! |

| Westron Wynde (5c) | I led the 2nd pitch, Mark led the 1st and 3rd. Very wyndey! Could barely hear each other. I struggled following the 1st pitch off-width and was kinda freaked out about leading after that. But then took some deep breaths and it went fine (although I did wind up with crazy rope drag, as the route was quite wynding). Fun climbing! |

| Lost Ledge (5a) | Super clean and continuous crack and it's fun to follow a single line all the way up. We split it into two pitches, I led the first and Mark the second. |
