Description:
This follows a crack/corner. There are pretty big dikes which you mantle. Some strectchy moves. Bolts at top of first pitch. Second pitch is short and real easy but little to no protection. I belive this route has been re-graded at 5.8, please correct me if I am wrong.

Always a great climb. Probably worth rapping off after the first pitch.

First move was 5.8. Everything else is steep 5.7 dikes.
Easily protected with nuts - bring two sets.
