4 out of 5 stars Tough mantle

Fun climb but a bit tough to get over the crux. Stemm and mantle. Considering some of the other ratings of 5.10a this is not a 5.8 IMHO. Lots of power needed to get over the crux.

Top roped. A bit sketchy in places for holds. Balance is king!

5 out of 5 stars Tough Start

This one beat me as I couldn't get past the crux onto the slabby part. Start is a 5.10a/b. Next time!

4 out of 5 stars Swiss Cheese

I setup a TR anchor this weekend and noticed that the bolted anchor on the top of swiss cheese is a spinner. Both the anchor and the bolt+nut spin. Yes, even the bolt. Basically take some long webbing + cordallettes with you (45ft). I slung the tree an the outcrop. Used the bolt as a minor backup as 3rd anchor.

It's a fun climb and really good for beginners. It's a bit of a hike an you will need lots of gear to set up (which means lugging it in).

You'll need a 60m rope for TR. You'll also need plenty of water as it's hot and you will be exposed whilst setting up anchors.
