Double cracks to the left of Bears Reach. 3 pitches of nice crack climbing/dike hiking. The crux is on the second pitch, climb over buldges using pin scars, small cams are helpful here. Joins Bears Reach at the 2nd belay.

Awesome route
Personally liked it better than bear's reach. My partner came off slipped and hit her back (backpack) at the sustained cruxy part of P2 (watch out).

Cool route
led 1st and 2nd pitches, BG took 3rd, including a whipper. The girl will go for it. This climb eats up offset aliens.

Awesome
I enjoyed this climb more than Bear's Reach. Steep and bulgy with plenty of great pro. Great moves that make you think, but aren't too hard.

I lead the first pitch last year and finally nabbed the next two pitches. Great climb. A few steep bulges, but no real "crux" to speak of.
