White Lightning
Hardest 5.6 I have ever touched I am pretty sure. Would have to say it is at least a 5.7 or better. Would have loved to work the other routes on this wall, but with a broken ankle I just had to climb what that walking boot would allow me to get by foot on. HEHE! Overall, if you are a crack climber, not bad. If you are a brute force climber, good luck.

Just a warm up
This route is almost not worth roping up for, it is so short you could almost free solo it with no trouble at all.

I'm glad I can lead 5.8's after seconding this hard little 5.6 route. Should probably be 5.7, Any new 5.6 leader will be in for a shock on this. Will do it again and look for the easier way to climb it.
