Description:

The climb starts on juggy terrain left of suds, which becomes distinctly thinner starting at the third bolt. Probably a touch soft for a Yosemite 5.8, and surprising well protected.

4 out of 5 stars Fun easy lead

Fun lead! Had a problem finding one of the bolts (believe the 4th) - but I am short and couldn't see it behind a bulge. Fun movement.

4 out of 5 stars Thoughtful

These moves definitely make you think if you want to do them gracefully. I used barely any effort getting up this climb by using good body positioning. Awesome short climb.
