4 out of 5 stars This route has fun Potential!!

This route is becoming more popular and has seen more ascents as Redding's climbing scene has grown. I would like to get on it again and Redpoint it in a single pitch push. It started as an aid route, but should be a fun, free, long SINGLE pitch limestone slab. A 70m rope with alpine draws should do the trick to reduce any rope drag. Once I try it, I'll let you all know.

5 out of 5 stars The area Classic

Big holds, thin underclinging crux, big pump. Nice to finally knock this one off the list.

5 out of 5 stars No longer a put off due to poor pro

I retro bolted the first bolt and replaced the manky cable and rusted anchors bolts and hangers. This route has been a blast as a new Shredding project. Looking forward to a Redpoint ascent some day.

4 out of 5 stars A nice addition to The Shredding

A little off the beaten path for the regulars, but something new to challenge a newer leader. This route closes the gap between The Shredding's easier routes and hard overhanging stuff on the Main Wall.

5 out of 5 stars A Shredding classic!

Thinner moves down low, with some big holds higher to shake out that pump!

5 out of 5 stars A great climb!

I agree with the description. The approach is difficult to find and access down the 3rd/4th class gully is loose. We had a party of 5 and thought the gully decent would be much faster than rapping in with a large party, and it probably was, but it wouldn't be my first choice next time. Now that i am familiar with the top of the dome, and the rap station, I will rap to the bottom next time. The rock is solid in most places, but since it is infrequently traveled, some parts have loose granules that make friction moves delicate, especially when you're run out 50-100 feet.. Also some of the flakes that can accept pro, may break off if you actually fall. Case in point....don't fall, don't get off route. Pro is way runout, so be comfortable with 50-100 foot runouts. All in all, this place has a remote alpine feel and is classic dome/slab style climbing. I recommend it, if this is what your looking for.
