5 out of 5 stars Spicy, awesome climbing!

Definitely scarier when you don't bring some finger sized gear! A super route and one of my more memorable ascents at Skaha.

5 out of 5 stars A favourite

Great climb! A climb I like to take people on. 10a is probably a sandbag grade, especially if Plumline is graded 10a.

4 out of 5 stars One of the best moderates at Skaha

2 pitches, over 180' of climbing up the lower face and middle corner to the upper face. Mix of bolts and gear. ("Perpendiculous" the 10a face about 15' to the right is also great)
