5 out of 5 stars Wasps and traverses and exposure, oh my!

Second ever multipitch climb, second time seconding. That traverse is definitely creepy, especially with the lovely wasp nest in the big flakey crack overhead halfway through it. Tons of exposure left me nearly in need of a fresh pair of boxers waiting after the rap!

4 out of 5 stars First multipitch, first time seconding!

Bluebird day, gorgeous climb, the best of company. Don't think I could have possibly asked for more for my first time on multipitch or my first time seconding. Thanks Taino for showing me a great time and not mocking my shaky knees!

3 out of 5 stars Mmm, Grits.

Easy cruiser, fun moves at the top, worth doing once.. or twice. :)

3 out of 5 stars Eek.

This poor wall gets no love, I tell you. Spider webs in every crack- I had some little green spider take a flying leap out of a crack at my face just as I brought myself up eye level to the crack! Peeled off in terror, got back on and sent it home.

If you don't mind cleaning cobwebs out of the holds all the way up, it's a pretty nice little climb- 2 trees and plenty of spaces for a gear anchor atop the ledge, easy scramble to get to the top, total time to get there, rig, and climb are minimal.

Those afraid of spiders should steer well clear. :)

5 out of 5 stars Awesome route.

Managed to send it on my first attempt, but not without a whole lot of sweating and nearly peeling working thru that crux. Phenomenally fun route!

4 out of 5 stars Wet?

It was a rather dreary, damp morning that led into a nice sunny afternoon when I climbed this, and it was bone dry. *shrugs* Very fun, balancy as previously stated, definitely worth giving a go. Can easily TR this and Cornflake off one anchor, useful for those slightly-less-capable friends you have in tow. :)

3 out of 5 stars Fun climb.

Nice little climb. Squeezing under the tree up top makes for some amusement.

3 out of 5 stars Fun and crampy.

Nice little route. At 6'2", I was a wee bit cramped in the 2nd crux. ;) Good natural anchors up top.
