5 out of 5 stars Has everything you want in a climb

Beautiful looking climb, great movement, exposed, tall, and amazing position along the gorge. What more could you want? There are also three distinct cruxes including a heartbreaker going to anchors if you're not ready for it.

4 out of 5 stars Much better than it looks

I upgraded this one to 3 stars in my notes (out of 4). Decent movement and great crux with a hold that is hard to find. Definitely a second half climb!

2 out of 5 stars Just ok

Arete moves onto slab with a single roof pull at the end. Only do if you're in the area.

3 out of 5 stars Fun, thinky climb

Need to be strong enough to hold on and figure out the sequence for the onsight. Once you know where you're going, redpoint burn is pretty straightforward.

4 out of 5 stars Nice, quick multi-pitch route

Recommend linking the following pitches: 1-2, 3-4, and 5-6 otherwise each pitch is really short. Need at least 16 draws to link the pitches since the route is euro bolted. If linking, should extend pitch #4 with x2 24" slings. Only one real 10a move. The rest is 5.8-5.9 climbing.

2 out of 5 stars Just ok

Short and not that sweet. Decent view at the top, which may be why it gets three units in the Limestone Bible guidebook.

3 out of 5 stars Getting used to Limestone

Perfect route to get used to the style of limestone climbing here. Rock can be sharp.
