Description:
The arete itself probably rates 5.8 but if you proceed slightly left it gets tougher, probably closer to 9/10.

Top Rope ascent by:
Right Edge of Arete
Me and some friends tried climbing the actual corner I made it up to about 25-30ft and ran out of arm strength but hey I am new at this. The refreshing thing is a guy who is experienced (although he wasn't fresh at the time) had a very hard time and couldn't make it either. I will be back this one is a nice challenge to stay within a couple of feet of the corner the whole way up.

Arete
Good climb, good scenery, and gotta love that it's less than 3mi away as the crow flies.

Neat route
Pretty straight forward. More difficult at the top third, but a lot of fun. Beautiful area, and picturesque view at the top (minus the glaring casino, of course).

So much fun
There are a lot of routes here that aren't recorded, but I believe this is the one we did. It was great! Lots of little holds, with a couple bigger holds.
