Red Point ascent by:
First lead
Maybe because it was my first ever lead, but this route felt scary for a 5.5. Not that it's too hard, but I guess I was expecting easier for the grade it's given. Lower half gear is there but not the best for your first time up. Ends at 2 bolts w/rap rings that are shared with the routes to the right.

Whoah!
The pro is very sparse on the lower half of the climb, and rope drag can be a killer. Great fun route though.

Easiest route at t-wall
one of the least, but a good route any where else.

Top Rope ascent by:
Same start as Nappy
Good route for beginning climbers but not so good for protection if you are leading it.
