4 out of 5 stars It has character.

Kind of a quirky route. The diagonal crack system feels awkward on the body at first. The blocks are still loose up top.

4 out of 5 stars Love the grovel.

Very enjoyable. Like others have said, you'll throw the kitchen sink at it technique-wise. Be prepared for grime, spider webs and above all loose stuff. All of which just add character. Oh yeah, and it's long - 100 ft or so.

3 out of 5 stars Strange but worth it.

Some mild bushwacking in the corner. Stay in the crack up top. Pumped out.

3 out of 5 stars Pretty good.

I started on Black Corner and traversed over 10 feet up. Hope to link the bottom next time.

4 out of 5 stars Fuck the bush, hop on it.

The top 30 feet are well worth the price of admission. Great jams in the crack up there - something of a rarity for Ragged. IMHO, a very under-appreciated route.

Yes, there's a bush to navigate around. If that's off-putting, you can always go to the gym.

3 out of 5 stars Fun.

Lower crux can be tamed by jamming one's right thigh in the off-width and ratcheting up. Don't take the easy way out up top - stay left (in the crack) and finish on what amounts to a balance-y second crux.

5 out of 5 stars A blast.

Third pitch felt so good. Big, high, steep, a joy to move up. Holds were so good I actually paused several times to look out over the exposure on all sides, soaking it up.

3 out of 5 stars Reasonable.

Much more straightforward than Tower Crack (to the left), which has a lower grade. If you get stuck toward the top try a long stemming move on the right face if you're tall.
