Description:

Starts lower than you'd think. Its more of a low traverse until you reach the second bolt. The crux is right off the ground and quickly backs off to easier climbing. Kinda contrived, its one move of 5.9 followed by a whole pitch barely over 5.7.

3 out of 5 stars Getting comfortable on the rock again

First outdoor climbing for a while so these sport climbs were a great start to the day before taking on the trad. climbs on the faces.
