5 out of 5 stars Phenomenal.

If 5.9 is not your limit than leave a #3 in the car.

4 out of 5 stars Very nice

Led p2, 3, & 5. The traverse on P3 was awesome exposure with good gear all the way. A family of three goats hung out with us on the first pitch, then met us at the top and followed us on the descent. The baby was cute. Aside from the goats, we didn't see another soul on the entire wall or trail all day.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful

Great multipitch route. The top two pitches are stellar! Ended up climbing the steep crack on the right just under the traverse. Definately wasn't the quoted 5.6 although I think the crack to the left might have been! Routefinding was a challenge. Swung leads with a friend.

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic

Great route, the traverse is definitely tough, and there is a bit of route finding, but the crack is stellar! Bring at least 3 pieces of 1" pro.
