Nice top rope climb. Easy climbing after a few tricky moves down low

2 out of 5 stars Nice face

Set up TR with static line. It was still so hot that the grip slipped with sweaty fingers.

4 out of 5 stars Surprisingly fun!

I only make a trip to this area of NY to climb twice a year and was really happy to get on this climb. it's not what i was looking for at the time but it was free.

3 out of 5 stars Slippery when wet

We went in search of TRs today. After 8 hours of very steady rain, I was looking to TR rather than fight the water on lead. This climb is a slip and slide when wet.
