My climbing adventures. All me doing my own climbing stuff with a go pro. Also some broomball in there sometimes.
Ash Branch 5 7 Fathers Day Delight
Short warm up with a neat little crack section. Probably the easiest of the 5.7s, or maybe just feels the most 5.7ish

Stellar line! Absolutely worth it! Helps to be a little tall, for the first move to get onto the face, and it's interesting movement on great holds after that. You should get on it
Ash Branch 5 11A Brain Fart

The mantle takes a few stars off of a pretty great face climb. Fun start sequence. Def recommend a stick clip for the first one
Ash Branch 5 10C Human Action
zhlédnutí 31Před 9 hodinami
Probably the best line in this wall section, but that's because the mantle on the 11A is not very enjoyable and this boulder problem is really engaging. Worthwhile for sure

A little hard to read, but once the beta is dialed, it's a solid 10B
Ash Branch 5 10A Festina Lente
zhlédnutí 32Před 9 hodinami
Hard for 5.9, so I'm giving it 10A but that's just me
Ash Branch 5 7 Shmear N Press
zhlédnutí 10Před 9 hodinami
Short and kinda difficult for the grade, but I suppose I didn't shmean or press very much so maybe that's on me?
Velo Crag 5 10B House Of The Flying Squirrel
zhlédnutí 65Před dnem
I broke a foothold on this route when I first got on it. Took a very surprising fall. I feel like it's easier than Tourist Attractions, but maybe that's just a style thing?
Hazel Hollow 5 10A Golden Apples of the Sun

Fun climb, solid route. I liked it better than Silver Apples, but that just me
Hazel Hollow 5 10A Silver Apples of the Moon
zhlédnutí 46Před dnem
Fun climb with lots of variance to it. Not as fun as Golden Apples imho but worth it
Ash Branch 5 10B Send Pickles

I haven't climbed The Hendersenss yet, but this is easily the best line on the wall. It's listed as 10D or 10 , but it seemed pretty chill for those grades. I was making big moves, so if you're a little more vertically challenged it might be harder. The top is so much fun though. 4 Stars. Get on it. But wear a helmet, it's a new crag and stuff breaks

It's a solid climb with a bit of a crux. Still a fun route though
Ash Branch 5 10A They're Out There
zhlédnutí 78Před měsícem
A fun start with a rough finish. Hard 10A for a budding 10A climber. And the hold you want to grab at the end is hollow and could easily snap off. It's a new crag, wear your helmet

good job
I'm looking forward to getting out to AB this summer and fall.
I thought Ash Branch was a cool area to spend a day. Thanks for sharing🤙
It's got some neat routes and it's expanding fast
Love this climb
It looked like you waded through some poison ivy to get to the start - hope you are not itchy!
Maybe? Honestly, that's why I wear pants all the time in the Red
soft 10, looks fun
This new area looks cool, and I'm psyched to check it out. Love your videos man ! 🤘
That crux took me like a half dozen tries my first time trying this route a couple weeks back. I eventually just went for the hold you threw at and caught it. Can't wait to go back for the send. Nice climb.
It's tough climbing for sure. Very powerful movement. Also worth getting on October Sky if you've never tried it. Totally different style, but a quality route
I just tried that a few days ago and got a back cramp at the roof, then I was a chicken and brought up the stick clip. Props, man.
Thanks! One of my proudest sends for sure.
Where is the climb? Looks fun!
It's at Great Wall in Muir Valley!
Was climbing my first time ever outdoors over at RRG Sunday as well
Hell yeah! Where did you climb?
Muir valley, Bruce brothers wall -> climbed the offering, ch4, A-Beano, send me on my way
that was epic
Honestly a fun route! Especially as packed as Great Wall gets
Nice! Who lead that originally? Looks spicy
I don't remember who put up draws, but it might have been me doing a beta burn
Im commenting for the algorithm
First view, first comment!
nice send ! where is that rock ?
Love it, keep posting these videos.
I clicked for the climbing. I stayed for the commentary. Cool rock 🤠
I still need to clib this! I have climbed Sinocranium a couple times.
It's a great climb!
Looks like maybe a ground fall if you fall between 2 and 3?
Thanks for putting this up, even with the missing dead battery footage. Nice job.
love the seranades
Such a great route. Pulling that roof at 12:30 is a fun as hell.
great commentary
Well done!
first
Very nice! Ever since I went to this crag and saw how big this place was, I've been looking for first person POV footage of one of it's long routes! I'm glad I finally stumbled upon one. That looked awesome!
It's a great route! There's also a long 10c there that's excellent
@SleepyWeaselClimbing Yeah, that looked cool! I started climbing a little over a year ago and pushed hard to get into leading. I took 5 trips to The Red from Michigan this summer, and twice I came back to this crag. Admittedly, I only climbed "Stick in the Eye" which is a 5.7 (lol, I'd say 5.8 start). I've only lead up to 5.10a outdoors, and still struggle leading on a lot of 5.9 climbs. I hope to climb harder, lose some damn weight, and maybe throw myself at one of these routes next season!
Yeww!
Nice route, Looks a bit less steep than some of the other videos I have seen.
It's pretty vertical. Or vertical on The Red standards
Gnarly holds. Great send
fun route. that downlow move was probably hardest move on entire climb
Don't know how I came across this, but that was awesome dude. Well done!
It's a stellar climb that earns all the stars it gets!
That rock would still cause some real damage if it hits sharp side on your shoulder or feet
And that's why we wear helmets! And : "oh i don't need to wear a helmet Gavin!"
this climb is wild
ah i miss the red
Great climb Carl! This one was a doozy.
No joke!
Oh my gosh, that looks like such a fun route!
It is! Very chill, excellent first outdoor route for a new climber or warm up for someone more experienced
sick af nice work
Nice work
Great climb man. Where would you say the 11c sequence is? Near the beginning? I've wanted to get on this route for years... just been saving the flash attempt lol
It's been a while since I've been in it, but what I remember is it being 11c ish from the ground to the first huaco, rest, and 11c from the first huaco to the second huaco. After that it's chill. A lot of it is about pump management and knowing how to rest
Ignore the haters man, i just uploaded a video of me falling a bunch too. It was humbling to get my ego bruised as a 5.11 climber on a 5.9 crack climb at the new river gorge... don't trust 5.9's FA'd in 1984 haha.
Nice work dude 👍 Love your videos, I watch almost all of them !
Thanks dude!
Are the recent videos at the New ?
@@IsaacEyeSickFry nah, I haven't gotten out to The New yet this year. I climb mostly at The Red
Me too 🤘 I'm not familiar with the routes in the newer videos though... I'm working on 5.12 this year. Hypocrite is a good contender 👍
@@IsaacEyeSickFry hell yeah! I'd love to send that too, but hot damn it's hard for me. You been on it yet?
No doubt this is probably true to its grade, but it’s crazy how easy routes look in this POV style. That looked like solid jugs the whole way up! 😂
It's a tad reachy, but a stellar climb!
Looks pretty nice.
It went down a lot smoother than I thought it would
@@SleepyWeaselClimbing Looks like my sort of climb. There are many great slabs around here.
Nice and tall🤙
I bet $5 that was at Hazel Hollow🤙
You would be correct
@@SleepyWeaselClimbing everything is crispy and crunchy there. I had to be on my mental A game when I was there while leading.
@@LouDude502 I learned it the hard way, but not the hardest way thankfully. I'm usually mindful of it, but that one really drove the point home
@@SleepyWeaselClimbing agreed 💯. I always wear my helmet while climbing, but my belayer doesn't always.
Damn ass rock.
what??????? what happend??
The rock broke when I pulled on it. It happens sometimes
This is exactly why I never tried to free solo.
Wise, you are
