4 out of 5 stars P1 of CCK

Fun climb landed us on the GT ledge where we traversed left to finish climbing the upper section of Moonlight. Ratings reflect only the first pitch of this route.

5 out of 5 stars a new favorite!!

finally got to climb the famed third pitch...and loved every second of it!! climbed with greg. i led P1 and P2(easier version- using updraft corner) and greg led the money P3. it really is all there once you go for it (gear and holds) you just cannot see this from the belay... so looking forward to leading this pitch soon!! what a thrill that will be.

5 out of 5 stars Fun Times

The crux pitch is very fun with an interesting traverse and some fun layback/crack moves. I don't think it's listed as a 5.8 and didn't feel it either.

5 out of 5 stars Wow

I led the easier p1 and JohnG linked p2 and p3. Simply an amazing climb and worthy of the hype. My only regret is not having a camera.

5 out of 5 stars This dragon is slain.

For P2, you have to go about 8 feet right of the obvious corner above the pine tree. It's an in-obvious line through a bulge on somewhat reachy holds.

worth it for P3.
