squishybest on the hogsback  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Jun 28, 2009

Climbed with another summitposter, brian. Very enjoyable route, I'm disappointed I didn't climb it earlier. It was easier that people made it sound, the route finding and short spicy sections were a blast. I have now completed every route on the Hogsback and this is by far the best one...

FYI, there were at least three detached flakes, but they are easy to go around, no need to remove them...

lukicGentle route  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Aug 12, 2007

A great route for a beginning trad climber like myself to learn on. One of the first routes at lover's leap that I climbed and other than getting off route a bit and running into a bit of 5.9 runout that I had to get around and retrieve gear from, it went smoothly.

MishaGood stuff  Sucess!

Stop by the Leap for a few hours for the first time. Why did it take me so long to get there!?
Fun climb and a good way for me to get back into leading after an eight month hiatus. We tried to make the route two pitches but failed due to a couple of route finding errors and a nasty detached block that I chose to climb around instead of over. I took a 5.7 variation near the top - enjoyable and runout dihedral that with lots of face climbing workarounds.
Climbed with Etsuko and Rob on a glorious summer day.
We shall be back to the Leap soon!

Followed Etsuko and Misha on Deception - their first time at the Leap, and my first time on the Hogsback. It was ... deceiving, but fun :)

My first multipitch since I broke my foot - quite painful, but that's life.

CAUTION: We encountered a large detached flake about 150' up, just above a fixed cam (badly mangled).
