Sketchy but easy start. Well protected after first bolt.

Description:
This route begins on a narrow ledge about 10 feet above the ground. A small metal plaque on the rock marks it's beginning with its title "Broken Bolt" engraved in it. It's a good idea for the belayer to build an anchor with a few cams in a nice crack right beside plaque. The first bolt is really high from the ground, but is easily clipped by gaining a small rock tower just to the right of the start.

A decent challenge
Fun route with a few challenging moves (for me at least). I'd definitely climb this again.

Daunting first clip
Fun to work out in upper section. Good holds through middle. Look forward to tackling again.
