4 out of 5 stars Great climb for beginners

Follow the flake until it ends then climb the face. This is an exciting lead for new climbers.

3 out of 5 stars Finally, no wait.

First lead in 15 months. Beginning and end are nice and easy. Thinner and more polished in the middle--feet came loose on the polish, but luckily I had both hands on and was able to avoid a fall.

5 bolts; 2 Fixe sport anchors.
