2 out of 5 stars The pillar

The rock quality on this sandstone is the worst quality I have ever climbed. The bolts in the dihedral on pitch two are mank and the pro nearby sucks.

3 out of 5 stars Nice Mixed route

The first pitch is a pure sport face climb that is well protected and can be top-roped/raped off of. If you want to climb the crack bring a set of cams .5-3 for protection. I only saw one 'bolt' protecting the crack that looked like it was made from 1/8 in tin. After the crack head right to 3 quality bolts that lead up to the 2 bolt anchor. Rap off the back after topping out.

4 out of 5 stars Ascent Note

Possibly the best climb (crack) in the bay area.
