Description:
As the approach trail meets the wall, walk left of the blunt arete a few feet to locate this line on a less than vertical face. Climb through large holds, angling right to the anchors. Chossy and dirty, but everyone does it.

Starter Climb
After spending the summer with a bunch of annoying people who flash everything, I felt slow and unaccomplished and inferior. Then I went and did a climb like this with a group of beginners and saw firsthand how NOT everyone can rock climb, and thought about how far I've progressed, and felt awesome again.

Everyone does it,
...and so did I. Did not bother to clip the chains and do a toprope transfer, down-climbed and cleaned on lead. My first-ever 5.5!
