3 out of 5 stars Followed this route

Cracks are both large with lots of hands and feet options on faces. A good warm-up route and intermeadiate TRAD option in this area. Pulling the top is probably the crux of the climb, but it is easy to place protection and not really that difficult. Good hand holds on left.
