4 out of 5 stars I like this one

A fun climb, I watched my friend make the little mistake at the misleading part. Fun stuff.

4 out of 5 stars Nice cracks

Tip toe up the slab, clip that bolt, then get you some crack.

2 out of 5 stars It's not only for passive pro.

We had all sorts of cams in the finger crack. Anyway, the slabby, no-handhold crux is pretty tough for .9 but the rest is .6 - .8 at hardest. Fun if you like low-angle climbs where a slip means cheese-grater rock on your skin.
