4 out of 5 stars Short and sweet

Essentially a v2 boulder problem before second bolt. Easy but balanced series of mantles to finish.

Clipping the second clip is the crux.

But I can see how it's height dependent.

3 out of 5 stars Soft for 11a

Karen is a decent route and is worth doing if you are in the area. The climb has interesting moves and is thin in spots.
