3 out of 5 stars Interesting little route

I did a mock trad lead on this one, once I realized that you had to transition between layback and jams to place gear I did ok. Have done a bit of sport leading and I think that this is a bit more challenging than 5.6. This one clearly gets a lot of use and the rock is slick. Uber easy access.

3 out of 5 stars Noice Choice

First outdoor top out and first crack climb. Good rock. Id like to do more cracks. The beginning is a bit tricky but pretty nice after that.
