4 out of 5 stars An easy step up from Direct Route

This route has a bit harder start than Direct Route but is still easy and fun. There's a great view of SF from the top!

4 out of 5 stars Climbing in the middle of SF!

TR onsight - a strange, balancy, extremely slick climb and a bit hard for the grade. So stoked to be climbing .6 miles from my apartment in SF! awesome.

4 out of 5 stars Slippery and fun

This is a fun route - on glassy rock. Gotta hunt for the footholds - smearing is not your friend on this rock. Crux is the first ~20 feet, the rest of the route (the vertical crack) is easier and straightforward.

5 out of 5 stars Virgin Outdoor Ascent

Could not have been a better experience for my first outdoor ascent. The fact that you can top rope it, makes it a great start for beginners. I climb 11's in the gym many times a week, and the "10a" wasn't too hard at all. The first 20' is the hardest with the shiniest/slickest part of the cliff face, and the rest of the rock is solid and straightforward.

4 out of 5 stars Cool Wall

The mirror like rock is like nothing I have seen before. Fun just to see the rock itself. The climb offers some decent holds, after making you work for a few of them. Overall a fun afternoon. Use the stairs down further on Beaver street to set the TR anchor. We used the chain it seems safe to me, set a backup to another post with a 35' piece of webbing.
