2 out of 5 stars Abrupt

Easy climbing through slots leading to a neat crux -- not nearly as terrible as some might think initially. As a short guy (5-7), I was able to stick it completely static with an undercling, high feet, and a twist.
What a shame -- it looks like the route could continue up and left at the ledge, and the bolting seems to suggest that it was intended to at one time. As it is, the route is too short to really warrant climbing.

well, 5.7 climbing before and after and reachy crux. Gotta get those hands and feet way too close together for my liking.
