Onsight Onsight ascent by: A-Bowl on 2009-06-07 (View Climbing Log)

4 out of 5 stars pretty classic.. just hold on

fun route... my buddy backed down... we thought it was a 10 and i was calling him weak and stuff then i saddled up... had to hold on pretty tight to onsight it just to save face... found out later it scraped into the 11 range which is completely justified. actually kinda hard for 11a in the gorge. The runout is standard if you climb trad at all

5 out of 5 stars Awesome

Spicy lead because theres only 5 bolts (2 have homemade hangers), be confy with the grade.
