Description:
An interesting route, not really an R. The first pitch is deceptive, harder than it looks, with possibly dubious old pins for protection. Second pitch is the business. A large cam protects moves out over the roof past two bolts and a fixed pin (use a sling, not a biner, on the pin). Then comes about a 10' runout, safe enough (with air and good gear below). Plus, you can fiddle in an RP or TCU along the way. Third pitch is easier, but still interesting.

Sweet climb, got to lead the 2nd pitch, nice but intimidating to the bolt. Take a #4 Camalot
Also lead the chimney on Wiessners, the R rating is "WRONG", unless your carrying a big Big Bros, otherwise its Do or Die to the anchor, so pack em both and breath... Belayers note for the chimney on Wiessners, keep outta the shooting gallery.
