Description:

5.9 face leads to a spicy move involving a micro flake/hole. From there reach the juggy flake and a bolt. Huge reach right to thin flake and first horizontal. Huge reach up to next horizontal (DON'T USE THE CRACK ON YOUR RIGHT). Lieback up mini corner to good horizontal jams. Crimp over bulge and stroll up "ladder." A bit contrived, but really fun climbing. I'm a bit unsure of the grade so feel free to tell me your thoughts on it...MUCH harder if you're short.

3 out of 5 stars Ascent Note

FIRST ASCENT! Yehaw, my first route...The bolt was placed on rappel only after determining that there was no hook, microcam, or nut placement suitable to hang off of while drilling. Also, as I used a hand drill I needed a no hands stance which doesn't exist there...
