Description:
Striking arete. Very difficult climb to on-sight, the moves and holds are not as obvious as most lines at the lake. Also gets tons of sun, so chose your time of day wisely- Leaverbiner "Boulder problem start leads to a good rest and a couple moves of slab to an enjoyable finish. Definitely a good one to do in the winter"-db

So close....
Stupid slip after the boulder problem start, missed an obvious bucket moving around the arete.
Flashed the rest of the climb. Would've been my hardest onsite to date... blah.
GREAT route though.

fun
Busted through the boulder problem at the start and then took some time and thought to figure out the rest of the route. Very enjoyable.
