Fun climbing, lots of slopey but high friction holds, and very well bolted. Jean led P1 and I led P2.
Might have been a 5.7-.

Great intro to mult-pitch.
My first multi-pitch climb. I wanted to do this one before trying Unimpeachable Groping. It's a slight pain in the ass to find the anchors needed to rappel to the first belay, but well worth the search. It becomes so slabby that you're practically crawling by the end of the second pitch.

With the family
Did this with a spouse and two kids (11 and 12)! Beautiful day, walked right up. Rapped into start and then lead both pitches. We decided to walk off by going up and then heading left (as you face the cliff). Easy 5.1 down climb in a chimney otherwise just walking down the ridge to the left of the climb. Outstanding multi-pitch easy sport route. Great intro to Red Rocks climbing.
