Description:

fourth route from left, nice face 5.9, no overhang. For a more difficult variation (5.9+?), start the climb 3 feet to the right of the bolts, and stay to the right of the water stain, until you get to the tree growing out of the rock near the third bolt. Top out normally.

4 out of 5 stars not a hard route, but i was tired so i screwed it up.

A very safe lead. probably the hardest part is actually getting to the first bolt. I clipped the first bolt, then downclimbed back to the ground to rest before going back up. Then I fell twice, pulling the ledge, purely out of exhaustion and lack of motivation.
