3 out of 5 stars what a pickle of a climb

would have preferred the protection to be farther right where the arete climbing takes place. felt overly exposed due to bolt location

3 out of 5 stars direct line up jugs

located to the left of the route near the dihedral. The easiest warm up. Some may call it a 5.8. Be mindful of friable rock at the base.

Listen for the bray of the jack asses across the lake.

UPDATE: FEB 2016 - This is no longer a lead climb route. Someone got their panties in a wad so they removed the bolts and filled the holes in with glue. Whatever.

2 out of 5 stars poor bolt 2 and anchor locations

Bolting scheme is less than desirable on this one. It doesn't follow the line and seems unsafely contrived to make a hard finish to where the anchors are located. Bolt 2 ought to be up and left to protect the natural line. Likewise the anchors ought to be where the climber is likely to go several feet to the left.

I really tried my best to make it work straight to the anchors. That was futile. Perhaps it's very height dependent.

4 out of 5 stars so fun

reminiscent of pocket pulling in Margelef Catalunya. A must climb route. Very steep. You'll lower off 15-20 behind the start of the route.

06FEB2016: Sent it.
