4 out of 5 stars Run Rabbit

Great gear until just after the overhang with lots of good stances to place it from. I got a couple pieces in after the hang (#5 or 6 BD nut and #2 Metolius TCU), but they were not inspiring. The last 25-30ft. before you reach the ledge is run out with no gear opportunities, but the climbing is very easy here (5.4). Don't underestimate this route though. If you are not a solid 5.7 leader this route might give you trouble. Make sure you save a #2 BD cam (or equivalent) for the overhang. You can also get a good hex in (red wild country) or even some 4" gear could work, but that's a lot of hassle.
