Easy
Surprising to see how many bolts there are (literally 1 every couple of moves) given the rest of Pinnacles is much more sparse!
Also, the Rubine climbing guide suggests a 5.6 grade, which I think is way overrated.
It would probably be a good route for a very first lead climb (safe and low grade). Not much to see here for the experienced climbers.
At least you get to the top of something, so it sorts of feels like you reached a summit - albeit not very high :D
