Fun route. Good warm up for others there. Watch for the tree toads hanging out in in the pockets. Right D ring needs replaced. Threads no bueno.

Challenging but fun
Did this on top rope and hope to come back to lead it some day. The anchors are easy to reach from the top of the cliff for top rope setup, but bring some webbing and girth hitch to the tree before trying to setup the top rope.

The bottom is chossy but the top was fun. I'll have to try it again.

Really fun climb, nice smooth and consistent. It is a great warm up before trying some of the harder climbs at windy.
