"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

Snaz, Snazette and Cousin Leroy's UncleWith Ben from ABQ. We added the Snazette and the Cousin Leroy's Uncle pitches for a total of ten. This route easily raps with a single 70m rope as of 2022. Most beta is still out of date regarding double ropes. I led all the crux pitches. Cousin Leroy's roof is by far the crux pitch. The beginning of the Snazette is solid 5.10 but eases off after several meters. No doubt the best moderate route, if doing these 5.10 variations, in the Grand Teton National Park. Beautiful hike in with ample water available before you leave the main trail. We climbed Aerial Boundaries the next day, not near the route but offers more 5.10+ climbing for sure.
