Short but sweet
Crack was a little sharp and our group agreed that the crux was near the top. Dial in your crack skills!

Gem
With Liddy. One of my favorite Jtree settings. Fun climb with a short crux off the deck. You can walk off either way. The east is a bit more technical but shorter.

Cool location
Nice crack but hard to belay from the top. Lots of friction on the rock and anchoring is pretty far behind you.
