3 out of 5 stars Bouldery start

A hard, but well protected start leads to easy but run out knobby climbing.

4 out of 5 stars Shaded in the afternoon

Finished my day with this climb. Really hard opening move at the first bolt, had to actually use aid it with the quickdraw to get in position. Pass this initial move it was a total cruiser. I will be back for the red point.

4 out of 5 stars The Final Climb

Last climb in Yosemite... I can't wait to come back! Got the OS on this even though slap is not my forte by any means. Slipped once or twice at the crux, but I always caught myself at the little lip right below it. Easy climbing after words and some interesting cleaning because we didn't want to have to follow the route. Ended up both kinda swinging along the wall both tied in unclipping bolts where we could. A great last climb for sure.
