Diamond in the Velvet – Norepinephrine (5.10b PG13, II, 715′) – Black Velvet Wall – Red Rocks NCA, NV (03.29.26)

Norepinephrine is a five pitch variation to North America's most popular 5.9, Epinephrine. The last four pitches, all 5.10, stalk the brilliantly exposed arete left of the Epinephrine chimneys with a spectacularly diverse allotment of climbing - roof pulls, steep face climbing, slippery mantles and even a few splitter cracks, with just enough bolts to keep the climbing exciting, but rarely dangerous.

Vertical Spelunking – Tunnel Vision (5.7+ R, 6 pitches, 770′) – Angel Food Wall – Red Rocks NCA, NV (08.30.25)

Tunnel Vision is the most unique route I've encountered in my climbing career. Four pitches of wild chimneys and wide cracks lead to the namesake "tunnel pitch", a 30 meter diagonal bombay chimney which passes through an incredible varnished tunnel almost dark enough for a headlamp. This is three dimensional climbing at its finest, and a must climb for the grade anywhere!
