Description:

Jug fest. Newly added fixed draws make this a more enjoyable climb (i.e. now you don;t have to follow it to clean your gear!). Fun steep jugs. Nearly walk to the lake, on the right you will see a cave about 12 to 15 feet off the ground inhabited by many pigeons and lots of moss, climb up to cave and Tobacco Road starts on your right. Follow Green Fixed Draws. Bring your own draw(s) for the shuts.

4 out of 5 stars felt good

Really felt good to snag this one. Probably my hardest send to date. After working the moves it seemed much more doable. If the crux was a boulder problem it would be a V2, but the pump is what makes this one difficult.

4 out of 5 stars Pumpy and sustained.

Big jugs for the most part. Crux is heady and stout. Glad the finishing slab had big holds! Fun Fun Fun!

5 out of 5 stars Jug Haul (for the most part)

This route has a bouldery crux and it's always interesting to see how people handle clipping the long draw out at the end.
