cold
so some friends and i decided to climb in january and found it hard to stay on the rock that was freezing but after a finger warming break almost every bolt we made it to the top. heads up the second bolt is starting to come out so avoid falling on that one if u can cause i dont think it will hold but i could be wrong. oh and it is one of the best in the garden

hidden but amazing
This route is proof that; the harder it is to find, the better the climb.
My guide book said that its a 5.11d, but no way 5.10b is about right.

First Jug Haul in the Garden
A super fun climb with great holds and great rock the whole way up. The guidebook gives it a 5.10d but it's much easier than that. A bit pumpy but climb fast, it's short.

Ascent Note
Another good and kind of hidden climb. Alot of the really good pockets are full of sand. We might try to clean it up. I will lead this one by the end of the summer.
