Description:

Bolted line just right of Time to Shower. Follow the bolts up to a set of anchors just above a small bulge. Pumpy for a lower grade climb. Not sure on the name - that is what I was told it was. I was also told it was a 5.8 and someone else said it was a 5.10a or b.

Descent Options:

Rapp from the anchors at the top or continue up the much harder climb above.

3 out of 5 stars The usual high first clip

The first clip was quite high but pretty decent holds the whole way up.

3 out of 5 stars Fun

The route it self is fun and a good first 5.10a lead, but the rock to either side of the route is junky. I pulled off a 4ft long flake on my way down.

4 out of 5 stars Nice!

Really fun climb. I thought the rock was plenty solid and was never concerned about ripping holds off. The rock was really grippy, even in 90 degree heat.

3 out of 5 stars .

Both Watts' 91 book and the addendum say this route has "bad rock," but this is no longer true. I have lead this twice now - beginning of spring and middle of summer - with not so much as a pebble falling. It is well-bolted, pumpy, and super fun.
