4 out of 5 stars Enjoyable

Most seem to do this with 3 short pitches, but the first two may be able to be connected with a 70m rope (maybe even a 60). The crux is the brief off-width crack (actually, the crack on the face to the right of the OW is where to go). Other than this, there is a lot of low-angle slabby stuff with your choice of seams if you'd prefer.

Nice climb to practice steepish slab climbing

Fun and challenging for a crack newbie. A bit rough on the hands.

4 out of 5 stars Really fun. Easier than the the 5.11a suggests

Lots of fun. I don't lead 5.11, but after moving through it quickly on TR, I led it with minimal fuss. 3 grades higher than I had ever led before, so I have to question the grade. I found the nearby EIS (10b/c) harder than this. Good stances at all (except perhaps the last) bolts.

3 out of 5 stars Fairly typical for Maple Canyon.

Didn't seem much harder than nearby 5.8s.
