The first "pitch" of way up yonder should also be on the list.

I second t-bone with Eye of the Needle at Funk. That climb is super cool. While at Funk, do There Goes the Neighborhood.

as mentioned before. armadillo is super easy. and fuzzy is cake after the third bolt. the first pitch of up yonder is awesome but you won't be able to spray about it in the online guidebook, so keep that in mind. :wink:

left flank

Post by garageclimber »

i agree with the guy that talked about cruisin to left flank aquaduct pocket is a great one move wonder 11b to get on and as he said a jug haul to the top. also the 2 climbs that are just to the right.. relaxed atmosphere and another are 11c and are just a bit trickier at the beginnings also ending in jug hauls i would recomend, they are very fun... also anything in the arena proper is freaking sweet lines 11.a's and 10.d's i think they're all 11.a's but they are great climbs to get on.
good luck man.

How many 10d's have you done? Like Dhoyne was alluding to, if you bag a bunch of 10d's at the Red you are going to have a pretty easy go at 11a's.

don't bother with fuzzy ...a waaaaaaay over rated 10b if there ever was one....there are 3-4 moves down low, and then a booooring walk to the chains...if this makes anyones list of "must do 11's", then it just shows how little they have climbed at the Red...

A cake walk? I didn't think so... I thought it was pretty cool actually that I almost fell off the jugs at the top because I was so tired by the time I got up there. But I guess it's cool to think that pumpy routes are easy.

We went to The Zoo and I got the on-sight of Armadillo. Thanks to my climbing partners for allowing me to climb first and get the on-sight.

Thanks for all of your suggestions.
