3 out of 5 stars Nice route

Fun route and different options for ascending. There was a hawk circling overhead the whole time we were climbing, and that was pretty cool.

5 out of 5 stars Couldnt even come close a year ago...

Today was the day to push this one and it was great. Hung on the rope once for rest but was able to finish and that an amazing feeling for this once obese father turned obsessed climber.

4 out of 5 stars great, crimpy face climbing!

loved it. approached the bottom from a couple of different ways, plenty of options, but the route is obvious in the middle. lots of crimps and finger pockets, pretty pumpy at the end, but great!

4 out of 5 stars Definately crimpy

Far right then left gets a bit pumpy towards top. Bring enough water next time.
