Description:
5 pitches of climbing making it the longest route in the gorge. 5.11a - 11a - 10d - 11b - 11a. Guidebook says one 55m rope will work for the raps...it might???. A 60m got me within 12" of a couple of the belay stations. One 60m rope will keep it safe and land you at the stations.

Wow! what an amazing route, I played follow the leader, but because it is a traverse, the follower sees whipper potential too.
