4 out of 5 stars Continuum

Several of the last 5.8/9 cracks left for me to tic off at Jtree. Outstanding climb. I had nor worries with the start, but saw another party flail on it a bit. From there, a fun slanting ramp/crack, hand jams where you need them. One cruxy move for the grade maybe half way up. Combined with Invisibility makes this a destination for trad climbers for sure. Great full day is to combine these two with the Bird on Fire routes. Well shaded.
