Golden Dream

Gorgeous crack climb. Lots of ladybugs in spring.

Just as hard as it looks

It's "only" a 5.8, but it took me three tries just to get it started. I had to stand for five minutes to make the ringing in my ears stop as the world spun back to normal in between each attempt. And by the time I got up to the tree I was considering un-eating my Lara bar from the exertion.
I did not un-eat the Lara bar, but neither did I finish the route.
Next time, 'Ear-Ring', 'Vomitorium,' my nemesis. Next time. You are mine.

A heck of a crux

I'm 5'6", so I don't think height was a factor for me. The toughest part (aside from the teeny tiny fingernail holds you're working with) was about 3/4 of the way up, traversing left with just nothing for feet. I spent some time sitting in the harness and I'd like to have another go at this one.

Tricky!

It's not 'hard climbing' so much as just tricky sequencing. You have to really study the wall before you make each move, but there are a few places to stand and rest, so it's not as hard as all that. I see why others say it's harder than a 5.6, but I think that if you did it twice you'd feel otherwise.

A little tougher than it looks

We looked at this and thought '5.7? no way!' but sure enough, the crux at the top is as tricky as everyone says it is. It takes some thought and work.

very fun and not so hard if you don't psych yourself out

I don't know why I got so intimidated by this route, but now I can't wait to have another go at it.

tough at the top.

After four tries, I could not get over the little ceiling near the top. I'll have another go next time.

If you take your time on the crux, it's a cinch

I spent a good several minutes finding my bearing on the spot that tripped up the climbers before me, and the time paid off. I got up it more easily than corn flake.

Fun wall

Nice, big handholds for beginner climbers, but not so easy as to be a bore.
