Afternoon Climbing; Thomas Creek Galena NV 8/4/16

Early August I made an afternoon trip out to Thomas Creek with my long time friend Craig Black ( Level 1 Rope Access Tech ) in order to flash the overhanging 5.11 route at the top of the crag, as well as onsight the 5.10 climb known as Spat.  Craig was able to finish the 11 by getting a little off route, though not preferred.  And I was nearly able to onsight Spat had I not gotten shut down near the top feeling pumped with a difficult clip to negotiate.  This was just above the arrette rest spot for the climb, the proper solution I believe requires either a hand jam, or a lieback position with an awkward clip.  On my next Thomas Creek trip I would love to try and onsight the overhanging 5.10+ - 5.11- sport climbs which are located west around the corner of the main wall on a seperate formation of rock.
