hated it
I kept thinking... why did you bolt there? But... I guess it was easy?

sketchy
one of the top anchor bolts is broken as of 7/4/07, made for a very sketchy climb

Direct Aretection
Stick-clipped the first bolt. Crux was getting to 2nd bolt. I definitely used the slabby face around the corner a good deal. Interesting climb in a seemingly uncrowded area.
