Jack Knife is a fantastic first trad lead! It is a relatively easy climb with decent placements everywhere. This is where I taught my partner to trad lead.

3 out of 5 stars Jack Knife

I seconded cleaning protection. Be careful of getting your rope hung up on the belay chains if you repel down to cave crack. You have to run the rope over the crest of the rock.
