5 out of 5 stars gordy leads Stairs of Saruman

A little muddy on Feb.18,at start,bouldery move,then treverse left and onto ledge.Then pull over the small overhang and things get very fun.Cool thread through protecion,and a sweet turn around the corner on the steep friction arete .Trust the friction as you climb above the bolt,and a chained anchor will appear.Easier climbing up the large stairs ,get you to the summit.The bottom start feels a bit bouldery.SUPER COOL,A SMALL ADVENTURE!A MUST DO!
