Description:

Fun, easy route with some cool pulls on big jugs. This route has been extended to a easy, short second pitch that is only necessary if the party desires nice views into the Lake Blanche area.

4 out of 5 stars Nice Climb

A thrilling experience! Did the easier second pitch too. Besides being a fun solo, this would be an excellent first lead for someone just getting into climbing as the bolts are abundant and there is a large ledge to stand on while clipping the anchor chains.

4 out of 5 stars Great for a beginner

Started some first climb beginners off on this routel great to build confidence before moving to some of the other climbs on the wall. Great place to let someone take their first lead. Someone has created soms really nice pads to work from at the bottom of each route really freindly to 4-5 people groups.
