Description:

Length given for pitch 1 only; pitch 2 is another 80'. Good route that is a bit hard to decipher the path at the midway point. I stayed left and it worked out. I recommend this route.

Descent Options:

Rappel.

4 out of 5 stars Benevolence, Pitch 1 - 5.10b

This was a very sketchy lead that turned out okay. Midway up I stayed left like I had done before on top rope, but that led to a very tricky clip at my feet. Next time I will go straight up at this section to make the clip easier...hopefully. Great climb nonetheless.

I was really happy to get this route clean first go on top rope at the end of the day. Plan to lead it when there again.
