That was a climb...

Today, Phil and I drove over to The Weir and climbed Adagio (II 5.8, 80m, 4 pitches). The Weir is an impressive cliff -- 70m or so high, and vertical to more than vertical the whole way up. (Mont King is comparable in total height, but much of Mont King's height comes from easy slabs at the top -- The Weir gives full value the whole way.) I've never climbed there before, but had scrounged some information on the internet. It is mostly hard trad climbing, with 2 easier multi-pitch routes, though again I'd been told, stiff for their grade.
