Mardi Gras – 5.11a
23m / 75ft, 8 bolts
Description:
Climb the short slab to some tricky moves on good holds. A short lasting crux appears just before the small roof. Finish the climb on jugs. Clipping the anchor of Turtle Mountain tames the final runout.

Great movement and distinct crux! -
Did it a few times over my 5 days in LL. Different beta every time. Hard to find the right one. But eventually it felt super chill.
-
Fun jugs into really short-lived fun balancey crux into more fun jugs,
-
This was a fun pumpfest for me! Found lots of sneaky rests in the bottom half, apparently 6 moves is the max my arms can handle in the heat heehee! Thanks for the supportive, patient belay and hanging the draws C! -

Slipped on the first go - some greasy feet before the crux
-
Cool climb. Good edges and varied terrain and movement throughout.

Excellent climbing until my beta was less than excellent.... Then some quizzical facial expressions... Then more excellent climbing! -

Late night climbing after a blast of rain. Some great movement here! -
-
2021-06-01The runout at the top is real, easier climbing but it's a ways from the last bolt to the anchor! -

First onsight 11! Like others have mentioned, this route has a bit of everything.

I've been told my beta must've been horrible for this climb not to feel rad. Just not as good as the other classics. -
Hwy to Jasper closed, so an evening climb of this classic eased the pain. Beautiful line. -
Blew the onsight getting sooooooo lost and took a big warm up whipper. Awesome line!!!! Has everything. Balancey distinct crux
