Summary
![Xenophobe Xenophobe](https://chossclimbers.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/DSCN0005_2-225x300.jpg)
The short but acrobatic (and the grade setting) start to (the very short) Xenophobe (5.10c) route on Mudpile at Smith (May 2010).
In May of 2010 (as a preparation for our Riglos trip), we went to the Marsupials to do some sport climbing away from judging eyes of the main area ;). We both led Tuff Shit (5.10b…because the name is so cool) on Mini Half Dome and the Kid-Packed Mini-Van From Hell next door (rated 5.11a in the new Watts book but only 10c in the old red supplement…the latter is – unfortunately for us! – closer to reality). I also led the short boulder problems called Xenophobe and My Name Is Mud (both rated 5.10c but I’m not sure…). I then fell off Undying Spite (5.10d) and Shirley led Delirium Tremens(5.10a, only trad line of the day).
