Climbing Route Log
I use this page to track all the gear routes I have either led, attempted to lead, or followed. Most of the routes listed are in Eldorado Canyon ("Eldo"), Boulder Canyon ("BoCan"), the South Platte ("Splatte"), Lumpy Ridge, and Castlewood Canyon.
- Onsights: Routes that have been climbed cleanly with little prior route "beta", on the first attempt, with no falls. Failed Onsights are routes where I either fell or simply hung on gear during the onsight attempt.
- Redpoints: Routes that have been climbed cleanly, with no falls, after having previously climbed the route.
- Followed:
Routes that were climbed as the second climber.
