3 out of 5 stars Fun Stuff

Good climbing. Sketchy little stick there but fun. Cool layback moves.

3 out of 5 stars aptly named

Average climbing on sharp rock, but the key feature is the 2 foot club of a tree truck sticking up in the air between bolts #1 and 2. What a riot.

Crack on the upper section seems to be the crux with its high reach.
