2 out of 5 stars Bah

Not an enjoyable route really. Getting to the first bolt is the toughest although you can skip the hard part if you go to the right of the first bolt instead of directly up or a little left of it. Beyond first bolt the route is boring and easy. It is slightly runout actually but it is ok b/c the route is a cakewalk after bolt 1. One biner at the top is wearing thin. I would have replaced it but you need a wrench to unscrew the bolt from its setting in the wall and A) I didnt have a wrench, B) I havent set bolts before and would not be comfortable just totally removing it without an expert opinion. Overall, not a great route. Not even as enjoyable as monkey mayhem which is easy but long and has a better view.
