Direct Northwest Face 5.10c

Woody Hoburg, Darren

I've had this climb on my tick list for awhile - I figured it would be a nice harder 5.10 climb to test my limits on. It's a sweet continuous crack straight up the steep Northwest Face of Lembert. I actually found the 10c finger crack crux pretty straightforward - it's super short and protects well; the jams feel solid. Below that, there was a 10a move that had me confused for awhile. It was awkward and reachy for me, and I'm 6'3"! Finished up the day with a toprope of the last pitch of Crying Time Again, a 10a face climb.
