G-String	Onsight	5.8

Giggling Marlin	Red Point	5.9
Stout 5.9 IMO, but sent it clean.

The Trident	Onsight	5.9	Sport	G
Bring a BD .4 and .5 for the run out section with missing pitons on pitch two. Led all three pitches.

I spent a couple Sunday mornings over the last two weeks climbing here. This is a perfect area for early morning summer climbing. Sunday was downright gorgeous. We arrived after a light rain and along with the morning shade, got some nice cloud cover. The Trident is a real fun multipitch, almost has the feel of a Sedona sand tower with its big views and exposure. There are also some high quality moderates with Hide and Seek and Alley Cat being the highlights. My friend could not finish his lead on Giggling Marlin, so I finished off the stout 5.9 for him. I think this route would be a 5.10a at other crags. Cool area overall. I really like how I am exploring and climbing in areas that I have driven by for years now. A fun new chapter in my outdoor Arizona career.
