A beginner's lead
Although narrower than Henry's (it's neighbor to the left) Blitz is my favorite of the two Beer Climbs. The first part is low-angle, cruising stuff, and was good for a beginner's lead for me. At the top of this easy section, there's a flat part (with tree's you could rap from) leading to a final, 20-ft vertical pillar.
