Beginner routes

American Wall at fortress. There are some interesting alternatives on the begining.

I saw Andrew Gearing climb Roadside Attraction using only a Yellow BD hex. Thats about the same size as a #2 camelot. So I guess you could do that.

You could always climb Foxfire...theres really no good placements on it so its good for a limited rack.

You could go up Nevermore on a rack that size. John Shrader did it in five pieces, one for each pitch. It was his first trad lead. He did it on a borrowed rack...mine.

I find copperheads on trad routes-I hate snakes.

Find a way to get yourself some more gear, then go to Seneca or the New.

seneca or the new??? may have good trad, but the red has plenty of great cracks. you dont need to take off to climb trad.
