Description:
Climbs the right hand and easier of two nice cracks right of Horseman. Starts at a tree. An easy 1 pitch 5.6 and very popular. Also a nice A1 pitch to learn aid on(do it in the winter or on a weekday so you don't tie it up).

First trad lead!
It was a great first lead. Obvious protection, close together, right before the 'crux' you can place a good nut and a good cam to go into it with confidence. Bolted at the top for a nice easy rap down. The rock at the top is a bit grainy, I didn't really trust my last two placements but you're pretty much climbing stairs at that point.

Nice and Short
You might spend more time waiting than you do actually climbing this. Pretty easy for a 5.6, but fun to climb. A bigger cam (~#3) would make the crux less tricky to protect.
