Revenue Village: Ol' Two Tier - Finally got to climb "Schwabby's Access" and "Up and Adam"

Its kind of funny how Lucas and I bolted these routes over a year ago and they didnt get climbed until last weekend! I have been dreaming of climbing them since we bolted them cause I knew how awesome they were going to be. And they did not disappoint! If I go with a 5 star rating system out there, these both get 5 stars! 'Schwabby's Access' is a great 5.9 and 'Up and Adam' is the best 5.7 around. Lucas was obviously feeling bold the day he bolted 'Up and Adam'; besides the first two bolts the minimum runout is atleast 12ft keeping the 5.7 uber exciting. They are both pretty close to 50+ meters. We were hoping to finish up the top pitches but due to some time constraints thats all we got to do that day. We, Sam and I, installed chains on all the anchors.

Looking way down Up and Adam (named after a certain Adam P. that loaned us the drill that was used to bolt the route).
The bolts hug the arete climber's right adding some exposure to the already bold climb.

Sam brought the sunshine instead of the rain this day (for once!)
Estoy contento.
