Pink point and downclimbed.

May 2011

great climb!

I could do this route over and over and over again! Good route for practicing placement as there are tons of options a plenty of good rests. Highly recommeneded!

My second lead. Used all passive pro, except for the last placement. A little flared for the last 10 feet or so, but there's a perfect pocket for a .75 to protect the top out.

Good warm up route

Climbed this quick and placed pro like every 5 feet, so Lauren could lead it like a sport route (new leader). This climb just doesn't get old. Tons of rests and protects with mostly passive gear.

A good climb for new leaders for not for your very first lead. A little tricky getting started but once you get going you can sink pro like crazy. Several excellent resting spots, just don't fall asleep :)

Seconding Gini Kramer on First Crack

Great first lead, plenty of protection.
