Description:

South West Side. An easy route for beginers. Mostly face climbing on wildly featured rock. Can do it in 2 or 3 pitches. To do in 2, belay just before the "classic step around move".

5 out of 5 stars Girl Friend's First Multipitch

Great route. Bring plenty of slings for natural pro (dinner plate rocks that can be slung).

4 out of 5 stars Fun route

that has a lot of options as to where to go. Recommend saving a .4 cam as a directional for your second if you head left after the bolted slab move on P3. The climb can be done in 2 pitches with enough slings/less pro.

4 out of 5 stars welcome to Southern California!

First climbing I have done since moving here a few weeks ago. Great route to start the area on, and great second following me up. No super surprising moves, would call it a solid 5.6 with a few reachy moves thrown in there.
