5.8 Variation
Lead to the anchors below the roof. Fun climb to practice your jamming.

Great for the new leader
Fun route that protects very well and always seems to have good holds. No real crux. DCA lists it as 5.9, but it's VERY soft for that grade; 5.8 at best. By far the most dangerous part of the climb is crossing the chasm just before the climb starts. Be careful!

Great Warm Up
Great warm up route and good for the new trad leader (such as myself). The route is a bit dirty, but the pro is pretty good and the holds are fantastic, especially the top half. The view is unbeatable as well!

Fun lead
I really enjoyed this route. A good one for beginning leaders with plenty of gear and stances. Anchors are set back about 6-7 feet from the top so bring something to extend them if you are going to top rope afterward.

First lead
Maybe because it was my first ever lead, but this route felt scary for a 5.5. Not that it's too hard, but I guess I was expecting easier for the grade it's given. Lower half gear is there but not the best for your first time up. Ends at 2 bolts w/rap rings that are shared with the routes to the right.

Laid back climbing
A rarity for T-Wall, this one feels pretty relaxed! Fun moves off of the top of a boulder continue all the way up. Good gear for the most part make this one a great lead for the beginner. Ends at 2 bolts with rap rings.
