Description:

The first pitch is only about 60 feet up to a small ledge with a pine tree on it and a set of shuts. 2 pitch is a about 80 feet and is also bolted and has a set of shuts. 3rd pitch isn't really worth doing unless you just want to reach lunch ledge.It's more like a 4th class climb.Fun climb for beginers or somebody just starting to lead. It starts at the same point as Skip to my Lou and just right of Peek A Boo.

4 out of 5 stars Good Family Fun

I lead the route with my mother in tow for her first time on this line. I had already climbed it several times in the past. It is a fairly easy route with no difficult moves. The first pitch up to the ledge is easy to follow with three bolts along the way. The second pitch is easy to get confused with Skip to My Lou. There are several bolts leading up along a nice ramp. Once the ramp hits a corner, look up for two more bolts that lead to a double anchor belay. If you end up at a belay in a large dish with a bolt above your head, you are on Skip to My Lou. The last pitch is a super easy, direct line to a two bolt belay at Lunch Ledge. No protection is needed on that last pitch.
