| Denjem | The Leap  | |
| I have climbed here a few times. It is sweet. Much climbing to be had and the bouldering is good if you are in to that sort of thing. The campground is really nice too. | |

| Love this place too! several trips from Bay area days surrealistic pillar and corrugation corner, haystack and bears reach come to memory - unreal rock and great vibe. | |

| gordonye | First time Date Climbed: Oct 16, 2010 | |
| Followed Dirk on surrealistic pillar, then I was thwarted by the 2nd pitch off-width of Traveler Buttress after Dirk did a successful lead. Beautiful rock and exciting climbs. | |

| BCL | Hogsback Date Climbed: Aug 24, 2010 | |
| Great day of climbing with Drew. Lead Knapsack, Deception, and Harvey's Wallbangers. Knapsack is easy money, traverse on Deception is awesome, Harvey's Wallbangers is the most technical and sustained of the three, but real fun as well. | |

| WML | Steeeeep Date Climbed: Jun 7, 2010 | |
| Way steep for the grade, but juggy! Climbed The Farce and Bear's Reach on my first and only day so far at the Leap. Fun climbing, advisable to warm up to the climbing, as dike hikin' is different! | |

| CarrotPaloma | My First Rock Climb! Date Climbed: Sep 13, 2008 | |
| This was my first real rock climb. I'm practicing for a film coming up and I really want to look like a rock climber. We climbed the route "Harvey Wallbangers -- Right." They told me it is rated 5.7, whatever that means. I actually climbed it! I did fall a couple of times, but I still made it. :) | |

| Learned to climb multipitch here. Amazing routes on enjoyable rock. Wish I had to time to climb here more often. | |

| 96avs01 | Nice n Close | |
| Climbed many times/routes with Peter Green and Michael Robert. Great area for multi-pitch instruction...typically less than 90 minutes from my front door doesn't hurt either! | |

| Dave Dinnell | A handful of classics | |
| First climbed here in 1983 and sporadically over the years. Used to make crazy occassional afternoon trips here after getting off work in Auburn. Climbed a few of the "classics." | |

| requiem | Bear's Reach plus Date Climbed: Apr 27, 2008 | |
| this was my first day at Lovers Leap and first time leading multi-pitch trad. i led 3 pitches of Bear's Reach (5.7 with the 5.8 variation ending), then followed a 4-pitch adventure climb; the first two pitches followed East Wall (5.6) to the great ledge, then 1 pitch traversing Ham Sandwich/Horn Blower 5.8/5.9 (or possibly traversed off route), a slab 20 ft across with great dikes for feet but no hands to a hanging belay halfway up the last pitch of Bear’s Reach, then finished the pitch as the sun went down. i'm spoiled forever. =) | |

| lukic | Love the leap Date Climbed: Aug 12, 2007 | |
| This is the best place for beginner and intermediate climbing that you could possibly ask for. Some gentle routes for beginners in leading and trad, beautifully solid granite with awesome holds and friction, almost non-existant approaches, and a great camp site. If you are thinking about going to Yosemite, you should definately consider this area as an alternative. | |
