First 5.8 at Moores
Very cool flake and crack climbing. Pumped out and fell ~10 feet from point of first pro trying to clean a small nut out of a thin crack. Rope stretch put my toes on the ground, which was a wake up call. A single 70m rope gets you to a ledge on the right from which you can downclimb 10 feet.

watch the ground fall potential at the crux. full valaue 5.8
good route, looks like it get little traffic on the top section. Seems that most traverse to anchors at top of Stab in the Dark. If continuing to top anchors, there is another nice hand crack (lots of lichen). Take two ropes to rap from top tree, or figure out how to scramble to Quaker State anchors or find the walk off.
