4 out of 5 stars Good starter

The start can be really easy on the left getting progressively harder as you move right. The middle no matter where you start is a cake walk. The end crux can be tackled in 2 ways. When you get to the barer patch 3/4th the way up, if you move left there is a good lip to grab. More natural to grab with a left hand but try and get your right on it. Then reach up high with the left over the mound and the grab the somewhat smooth boulder sticking out of the rock face with your right and use both hands to pull up. The right side route is a bit harder requiring some quick movement through some smaller holds. Nice in the shade. But the tree blocks the view.
