Before Some of the slopiest holds that have ever been stuck, The Dark Side climbs a subtle ramp feature left of the Camp 4 classic [The Force](/climb/2978/the-force) (7C). First ascentionist [Carlo Traversi](/climber/770/carlo-traversi) describes the problem: > The Dark Side has a V9 intro into a sustained V15, and those intro moves change the setup for the crux. All told, it is 17 moves from start to lip. > It starts off on a jug rail, an actual jug! The feature continues and it becomes a slopey—but good—hold for your right hand, and then you get these two really, really bad crimps: the crux holds. The left hand is the one that you spend the most time on, and there’s a crystal that goes right into your index pad, that’s the one that splits. You load the left hand, and basically put all your weight on it to reset your feet. Then you do a big lock off and enter the sloper-rail section. > The sloper rail is really bad. One of the worst slopers I’ve ever grabbed, for sure. You shuffle along this rail for eight or nine hand movements. It really feels like you’re hangboarding on the Beastmaker 2000 45-degree sloper. Then you get into this crimp rail, which is better than the crimps at the beginning but still very thin. That puts you into a high gaston, and then one last big lock off to a hold that is basically the end of [The Force](/climb/2978/the-force), which comes in from the right. > The Dark Side is weird for a hard problem. I’ve never seen a problem that is V15 or harder that looks like it. It either looks impossible without chalk on it, or it looks kind of chill when it’s chalked up.

Before First ascentionist [Carlo Traversi](/climber/770/carlo-traversi) describes the problem: > The Dark Side has a V9 intro into a sustained V15, and those intro moves change the setup for the crux. All told, it is 17 moves from start to lip. > It starts off on a jug rail, an actual jug! The feature continues and it becomes a slopey—but good—hold for your right hand, and then you get these two really, really bad crimps: the crux holds. The left hand is the one that you spend the most time on, and there’s a crystal that goes right into your index pad, that’s the one that splits. You load the left hand, and basically put all your weight on it to reset your feet. Then you do a big lock off and enter the sloper-rail section. > The sloper rail is really bad. One of the worst slopers I’ve ever grabbed, for sure. You shuffle along this rail for eight or nine hand movements. It really feels like you’re hangboarding on the Beastmaker 2000 45-degree sloper. Then you get into this crimp rail, which is better than the crimps at the beginning but still very thin.

A renovating virtue, whence, depressed,<br />
By false opinion and contentious thought,<br />
Or aught of heavier or more deadly weight,<br />
In trivial occupations, and the round<br />

Are nourished and invisibly repaired;<br />
A virtue, by which pleasure is enhanced,<br />

Some of the slopiest holds that have ever been stuck, The Dark Side climbs a subtle ramp feature left of the Camp 4 classic [The Force](/climb/2978/the-force) (7C). 

First ascentionist [Carlo Traversi](/climber/770/carlo-traversi) describes the problem:

> The Dark Side has a V9 intro into a sustained V15, and those intro moves change the setup for the crux. All told, it is 17 moves from start to lip.

> It starts off on a jug rail, an actual jug! The feature continues and it becomes a slopey—but good—hold for your right hand, and then you get these two really, really bad crimps: the crux holds. The left hand is the one that you spend the most time on, and there’s a crystal that goes right into your index pad, that’s the one that splits. You load the left hand, and basically put all your weight on it to reset your feet. Then you do a big lock off and enter the sloper-rail section. 

> The sloper rail is really bad. One of the worst slopers I’ve ever grabbed, for sure. You shuffle along this rail for eight or nine hand movements. It really feels like you’re hangboarding on the Beastmaker 2000 45-degree sloper. Then you get into this crimp rail, which is better than the crimps at the beginning but still very thin. That puts you into a high gaston, and then one last big lock off to a hold that is basically the end of [The Force](/climb/2978/the-force), which comes in from the right.

> The Dark Side is weird for a hard problem. I’ve never seen a problem that is V15 or harder that looks like it. It either looks impossible without chalk on it, or it looks kind of chill when it’s chalked up. [1]

[Katie Lamb](/climber/815/katie-lamb) became the first woman to climb 8C+ with her ascent in 2025.

Before

First ascentionist [Carlo Traversi](/climber/770/carlo-traversi) describes the problem:

> The Dark Side has a V9 intro into a sustained V15, and those intro moves change the setup for the crux. All told, it is 17 moves from start to lip.

> It starts off on a jug rail, an actual jug! The feature continues and it becomes a slopey—but good—hold for your right hand, and then you get these two really, really bad crimps: the crux holds. The left hand is the one that you spend the most time on, and there’s a crystal that goes right into your index pad, that’s the one that splits. You load the left hand, and basically put all your weight on it to reset your feet. Then you do a big lock off and enter the sloper-rail section. 

> The sloper rail is really bad. One of the worst slopers I’ve ever grabbed, for sure. You shuffle along this rail for eight or nine hand movements. It really feels like you’re hangboarding on the Beastmaker 2000 45-degree sloper. Then you get into this crimp rail, which is better than the crimps at the beginning but still very thin. That puts you into a high gaston, and then one last big lock off to a hold that is basically the end of The Force, which comes in from the right.

> The Dark Side is weird for a hard problem. I’ve never seen a problem that is V15 or harder that looks like it. It either looks impossible without chalk on it, or it looks kind of chill when it’s chalked up. [1]

Before

The first 11 pitches were established ground up by [Leo Houlding](/climber/574/leo-houlding), but when he reached El Cap Tower he couldn't find a way to continue. Almost 20 years later [Tommy Caldwell](/climber/551/tommy-caldwell) and [Alex Honnold](/climber/622/alex-honnold) worked out a line and took the route to the top of the crag, keeping Leo's original name. Alex and Tommy apparently placed some bolts to protect some of the run-out pitches Leo had climbed. [2]

In an unusual quirk, on pitch 4 Leo was unable to find a way past a short blank section of wall. To make the route possible, in an aid bolt hole he bolted on an Alfa Romeo badge (which used to belong to a car owned by [Tim Emmett](/climber/175/tim-emmett) when he worked as a sales rep. for [DMM](https://dmmwales.com/)) to the wall which could be used as a hold to pass the section. Caldwell and Honnold were able to climb this free by a slightly different line.

Many pitches free the aid route [New Dawn](/climb/6567/new-dawn) (A2+).
