A more technical start but holds abound.

4 out of 5 stars Crux is early...

... like the first two bolts. Nice long route, pretty easy after the first two bolts.

5 out of 5 stars Brutal start, but gets easier and easier

This one starts inside of Pancake House, with your back to an opening with a rather precarious drop. The beginning was difficult (don't get attracted to the crack), but got easier about a quarter of the way up and stayed that easy. At halfway you climb beyond Pancake House and get a beautiful view of the valley and riverbed.

3 out of 5 stars Very rough start... but nice finish

Confusing and tough up past the 2nd bolt. Took a few tries. The rest of it makes it totally worth it. I too would rate this one at 5.8 not 5.7 (due to the start).

A fun one! Took some mental work! The near by crack is gunky but fun as well!
