5 out of 5 stars Fun for all

easy lay back, nice holds all the way up. Try the crack around the arete to the right.

3 out of 5 stars Ok I guess

Hairy to get up there to set up the top rope. Rope ladder is dead; one rope is frayed through, and what remains is too dangerous to use. The bolt ladder is still in decent shape though.

The front face is reasonably entertaining; layback the crack to keep it mellow, or climb the slab in between the crack and the right-side arete if you want to challenge yourself. The top is covered with juggy pockets.

3 out of 5 stars got it

pretty straight forward I think getting up to set the top rope anchor was harder than the climb

4 out of 5 stars Tough Upclimb Solid Climb

Lots of options. If you climb all the way on the left side it is slightly positive the entire route. Great for confidence building. then work them over toward the right. Good Crack to work, couple spots to work on mantles, and some harder stuff on the right side on the horse path.
I would agree with the 5.6- for the left side, but as you go right and turn the corner the route could easily be a 5.8+ Anchors on top include bolts and several trees. Even two bolts on the upclimb off the back side to help secure yourself when packing gear up.....or down
