I remember Recluse as one of my first 5.9s a few years ago...

Prod and I knocked off work early, and then took turns leading all 6 sport routes on the Watermark in Boulder Canyon. Fun little crag near the creek for a warm afternoon.
Edit: Do any of you other New Englanders remember throwing a rope over the birch stump on Recluse to TR the start before leading on?

CB, in the guidebook at the time, Joe Cote's "A Climber's Guide to Mt.Washington Valley" (1972), Recluse is listed as 5.9+.
We were not total slackers in those days...
... the continental ice sheet must have buried the first several moves.
Go to Carderock near DC and do the 5.6s...

We were not total slackers in those days...
so you are implying that i'm a total slacker for going climbing...
i dont really care about grades,
i don't care that everything was 5.9+ BITD,
all i care about is pushing my own limits and having a good time.
if you can't handle the fact that recluse is significantly harder than your standard 5.9,
its best to take it up with the rest of the climbing community.
maybe start a petition to get rid of all grades above 5.9?

Indeed, and so fun. Especially for someone like me with little hands, I reckon.
