4 out of 5 stars Keep Looking

An interesting route that forces you to keep looking for "hidden" handholds before making progress. It looks runout getting to the bolt at the top of the route but is actually quite tame. A full set of stoppers is useful on this climb.

Quite nice, if short (OK, virtually everything at Old Rag is short).
