4 out of 5 stars Oh man...

A must do route if you want to take non-climber friends or a boyfriend/girlfriend on a nice "hike" with killer views. The 4th class chimney was the only shitty spot. The rest was a hike, except when I slipped on the "boulder problem" while laughing beforehand about how I would slip on such an easy move. Ironic. 5.4 Jugs Varation was a blast, but entirely too short (3-4 moves at best). Would be an awesome solo.

The standard descent describes a 300yard hike to the right(Supertopo), more like 1000 yards. And the descent does have some very iffy sections(a slip could result in a 600+ ft fall). May want to rap if you're with a clumsy person haha.
