3 out of 5 stars Nice climb. Not sure I would trust the pins on lead

Some nice thin face moves. Nice climb to the top. If you TR, bring 40 foot static line to anchor off the trees.

2 out of 5 stars The bottom part is interesting

We wanted to climb The Brat but a guide was on and suggested we do Handy Andy. Not bad.

3 out of 5 stars What a coincidence, met Jim's daughter Carrie today

NIce climb, lots of interesting variations. If you go out left at the 2nd pin it's a 7, if you go up straight it's more like a 9.
