Excitable Boys, 5.9+, 7 Pitches
With Elle from Santa Fe. A better route than I expected. The first pitch has a 5.10- corner option that looks outstanding. I did not have the guide at the time or I would have definitely jumped on it. I figured it belonged to another route and for the life of me did not know why I was leading up the face to the right. I am shocked the corner does not belong with the FA. You easily combine the first two pitches as well as the 3rd-4th pitches to make for fast climbing. The crux on the third pitch was full on at the grade, but short lived. A lay back corner over a bulge. The crux on the sixth pitch was the same, solid for the grade but relatively short lived stemming through a wide section. A decent route for sure.
