Ascent Notes for: Miss Bailey - 5.7 Average Rating : 3.87/5

love

such variety!! it should be far more popular. climbed with dave. he led P1 and P3 and i led P2. P1 chimney is really fun and easier than it looks (and i am not experienced with chimneys at all). P2 is super fun climbing, but really makes you think about your moves and your gear...lots of variety though!! and then P3 is wild! back up those pins... i am surprised this route is not WAY more popular. cant wait to get back and lead P1 and P3.

Sustained crux section that goes on for a long time - guess that's what the "+" after the 5.6 rating is there for... Fun, varied climbing. Followed Peter.

Cool route with a lot of variety. The chimney moves were a bit awkward but fun. I led p3 (love those pins) and thought about running out the traverse to reduce drag, but decided to place a #2 cam. Good thing because I slipped and took my 1st lead fall. If not for the #2, I would have landed on top of my partners on the belay ledge. Best decision I ever made.

the whole thing is good. just do it.

more people should check this out! always open... initial chimney might be intimidating, but the angle in it is not steep and there are footholds. plus its not that high once you're in it, and you get to the rail at the top and are done. p2 is mediocre, but interesting enough with the wall behind you. and p3 is money.

P3 was great, the rock looks dubious, but, it seems pretty stable. Nice exciting traverse with underclings.

this is such a fun climb.

first two pitches can be linked. you can chimney the second pitch, face climb it, or wander to the back and climb the crack. all are cool. the third pitch tiny traverse is puzzling but not hard. aim for the big foot.
