Description:
First pitch and belay are obvious per guide. Second pitch had some route finding. We traversed left 30' from the belay and up a corner system and then wondered up and left to the beginning of the bolts. The bolts are not confidence builders. The climbing on the first 3 pitches was okay but when we hit the bolted section the rock turned sour. Most of the holds exfoiliated as you applied pressure. I felt like I was first one on the route due to all the thin exfoliation. We bailed after the 6th bolt as it didn't look like things improved above
