If you like loose limestone, go for it
Lots of loose rock on the route. There's a 30 min. scramble up a steep scree slope to approach the climb. 3 pitches. A few different options for a first pitch; we've done what we think to be the "actual" first pitch and we've also done a different crack to the right by about 20 ft; the crack to the right was much better and had more solid rock; a large ledge allows you to traverse back on to the route. On the second pitch you have to climb a face with loose holds and very little protection, but you can avoid the toughest climbing by staying right. Be careful on pitch 2; we dislodged some huge boulders the other day, and more big, loose rock remains. Fun third pitch on good rock. Walkoff to the south.
