Second ascent by:
Fun climb
Left exit is really fun. Looks a little improbable when you are up there, but, it goes. There are just enough feet as you move left and the hands get better as you go. Somewhat commiting

Liked it so much last week, I did it again
Lots and lots of fun. The direct version is so much better than the regular version. Great climbing to the roof, pull the roof and go.

first Gunks climb
My first time at Gunks, first climb, first rappel. Followed Noah.
Short, tough traverse followed by interesting overhang section on second pitch.
