5 out of 5 stars Super fun and easy

The approach is long for Potrero standards. My partner got the beat on it but it is not the nicest path ( I twisted my ankle on the walk down). You can link any of the two pitches with a 70m rope; however, on the third pitch (5.9) you better skip some bolts or unclip them on the traverse, otherwise you will have a lot of rope drag going to the 4th pitch. Every pitch is well protected and it is easy 5.10 climb with nice rest spots. At the summit you can sit on top of this knife edge looking ridge, very cool.

4 out of 5 stars Fun one

Reaching the first bolt is easy but it is a little high. Go right at the crux, it wasn't easy to read for me, that's why I couldn't get it clean. My first lead 10b, nevertheless :)

5 out of 5 stars A bit scary

Nice crack climbing. You have to boulder the first part to actually get to the start of the climb, not a biggy but a bit scary when I top rope it the first time as a newbie. The other part that can be scary is the middle part, where there is no place to put protection until you get to a big ledge 3/4 of the way up.

5 out of 5 stars First trad lead in Canada

Nice route. Good place to practice cause you have the chance to set up natural as well as artificial protection.
