Now Todd, don't be a sandbagger. You know perfectly well that Hot Rocks is 5.9+ (at least without a top rope...)

Here's my ordering of the very few of those that i've done, easiest to hardest:


Heart of Darkness
Clean & Jerk
Crime of the Century
Left Ski Track
Right Banana
Hot Rocks

Is semi-tough that toprope on thin wall that's supposed to be 10+? If so I think it comes in right after the right banana crack... that thing's hard!

I'd say Clean and Jerk is easier than Heart of Darkness...

Semi Tough is on Gateway Rock. To your left faceing into Real Hidden Valley as you enter on the trail.

I've always have to really rev it up to get this one. It puts the "D" in .10d, that is for sure. It starts with a bang.

I have a very easy time on Heart of Darkness due to hand size, which makes this route very hard to rate. I've seen really strong climbers really work hard on it, but with my thin hands it is about .10c for me.
