Description:
An excellent route to learn gear placement on. About 90 feet on easy but continuous 5.3 crack jamming on a slabby column crack. Highly recommended.

Great warm up route or beginning lead route
Guide book says rack to 2" for this entire section of the wall but the beginning of this route will take 3" gear for the first 40 feet. Gear placements can be questionable for the first half of the route.
