Ascent Notes for: The Open Book - 5.6 Average Rating : 3.57/5

Beautiful view from the anchors. Belay from the top and soak in the scenery. First 20 feet are pretty run out but solid.

The bottom is forgettable. The book section is about 2 fun moves and I guess would be a good first time lieback crack.

After many top rope climbs, I finally got around to leading it. Thin pro for the first half, but easy climbing. The dihedral crack is short but sweet. Chain anchor at top.

Easy approach from top parking area, easy top rope set up. Either rappel down or walk down to start. Clean lines, and the best view, bar none, of any route I've ever climbed anywhere in the world. Beautiful, solid, love it.

I found the move in the book section of the climb to be odd. Wearing proper rock shoes instead of boots may have made the last move less awkward.

Probably the nicest line on the wall.

easy to top rope if you know where the anchor is from the top. possibly the most popular climb at Mt. Erie.

Did this again to set TR for new climbers.
