5 out of 5 stars High Adventure

Wild climb! Bring a #3 C4 to protect between well spaced first and second bolts. Bring a #1 and #2 C4 to protect between runouts at the top. Be careful of sharp (rope cutting?) flake and loose rock near the top. Despite all that, its a wild and awesome 100' ride. Make sure to have a 60m rope!

1 out of 5 stars Super Turd

3 stars in the new guide book?! This is one of the worst routes I've been on. Ever. They should revoke bolting rights for whoever put it up.

5 out of 5 stars Another Satisfied Customer

Hard for the grade - no individual move is too hard, but it adds up to a stout climb. Sink some horizontal hand jams after the roof to shake out before finishing. This send was a long time coming.

4 out of 5 stars Sandy!

Tough to get to second bolt. Power though to the finish. Take a lap to work out the beta and have a friend brush away the buckets of sand covering the route. Cool route.

2 out of 5 stars Meh

Bolts seem oddly placed and spaced. Bottom is nothing exciting and the top is awkward.

5 out of 5 stars Cool!

Excellent climb! Committing to pull low bulge and pumpy to finish through the roof.
