3 out of 5 stars Tougher than it looks

In spite of the name, I actually climbed this route late in the day and had a picnic dinner at the top. Nice view of the valley below. VERY loose block, and the overhang was tougher than I expected.

2 out of 5 stars Short, and not that sweet.

Crack was still wet, and that made it a little more difficult than its 5.6 rating, as the crack was basically no good for jams, and smearing on the face near the crack was difficult.

3 out of 5 stars Fun warm-up.

This is a good warm-up near Calculated risk to the left. Both routes can be easily share a toprope anchor. Bring long static or webbing, the best trees to anchor to are 35-40 feet from the edge.

4 out of 5 stars Tougher than it's rated.

I found this to be more challenging than a 5.7, but I don't have a lot of practice on OW cracks, so it might be easier with better technique.

4 out of 5 stars Anchor Clinic Climb

My first climb on a TR anchor I rigged myself. I cheated a little in the middle, and skipped the 5.9 face in favor of a crack off to the left. I hope to return and hit that face.
