5 out of 5 stars ...

Fun climb with some great rock. Found P2 to be the crux, and pitch 6 was definitely not a gimme (had to take the helmet off for the top). There are rap anchors atop P6, P5, P4, P3, and P1. We just did double rope raps from 6 to 4, 4-3, 3-1, and 1 to the ground. I think the only obligatory doubles are 3-1 and 1-ground, but not sure about 4-3.

4 out of 5 stars Another great day in Sedona

Lead pitches 2,4 and 6. Markguycan lead the rest. Mostly great climbing with a bit of obligatory choss. Perfect weather. Great day!

5 out of 5 stars Awesome view, awesome rock, awesome climb!!!

Love this place! there are a lot of good pitches on not-too-bad rock. The second pitch takes some juice, is good the hard section is not long and protects very well.
