| squishy | Finally  Date Climbed: Oct 11, 2009 | |
| I kinda learned to climb at Lovers leap, starting on pop bottle as my 1st lead/trad/multi-pitch/1st time at Leap. It was a sobering experience so I headed over to the Hogsback with my tail between my legs. I have done every named pitch on the Hogsback below 5.7 since then and I always topped out to the beautiful view of the climbers on the East Wall. I vowed over a year ago I would get up Bears Reach, Dan Osman's speed solo is legendary. I have finally done it, one random Sunday afternoon. When you think you can do it, you probably can. I basically scared myself off the route, till now...what a rush... | |

| requiem | My first multi-pitch trad lead Date Climbed: Apr 27, 2008 | |
| such a fun route! i ran out of quickdraws, large nuts and almost a full set of Aliens plus #2 and 3 Camalots on the second pitch... and i did the 5.9 variation end on lead which was quite exhilarating and all the more rewarding when i topped out. | |

| Eric L | Run out the pro Date Climbed: Aug 3, 2006 | |
| I took my friend up this climb and led all three pitches. The climbing is really fun and easy so I put pro in about every 20 to 30 feet. This was my second climb at the leap and 4th multi-pitch. | |

| pvalchev | crowded! Date Climbed: Jun 16, 2006 | |
| We had the most painful experience waiting behind slow parties on the route - almost needed headlamps, epic! Wouldn't go there again on a weekend... the 5.9 finish "variation" (one move) added a bit of excitement after all the waiting but wasn't memorable or anything. The big reach was anticlimatic for a 195cm tall dude like me. | |

| Have done this climb several times, but this was the latest. Usually do the 5.9 variation at the top. Fun climb. | |
