Second ascent by:
Fun intro to Table Rock
new
My first time climbing at Table Rock. My partner (John) led the 5.7 pitches and I led the 5.5 and 5.6 pitches. Reminded me of Wailing Wall at Moores, with lots of horizontal cam placements. The highlight was my first time trad climbing with my daughter! The route seemed mellow for the grade, maybe one 5.7 move at the beginning, and the second pitch should not be more than 5.4 at best.

Good way to start the day
The climbing was mellow. No pro in the beginning, but easy climbing. The upper section stayed on you until the bolts. Not sure why this one is bolted since there is plenty of natural pro on the way up.

Climb was really fun, took awhile with 4 people, third pitch is kinda hidden, and licheny.

Great (though different every time)
Somehow, I've always managed to top out in a different spot when going up Hidden Cracks. Oh, well.

beware loose rock!!!
party of 3. hanging belays. route diagonals rightward the whole time. adequate pro for competent leaders. 60m ropes barely reach the ground from the 2nd pitch anchors. beware a loose block 6 inches thick the size of a car hood encountered during rappel.
