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

"Stellar"
This is probably my favorite route at Summersville. Missed the on-sight by two bolts but got the red-point second go. Awesome!
