Description:
Route #9 on the topo. Fun and well protected face climbing up smooth, water polished conglomerate. A great beginner lead (another opinion: many find leading Cruiser to be easier, as the crux is low and very well protected; and falling off of the crux of either South of Trout Farm or Ezra is certainly safer for your ankles than falling off of Cobble Climb--climbingeek).

misty day
the day was misty on the climb. more of a sport climb but also can be top roped from the quick links at the top. definatly an interesting climb. footholds can get a little scarce, but it was a first on cobble stone type rock which i enjoyed.
