Tough clipping the anchors. Slopey if you go to the left, a shallow "envelope" crimp and a looong move (I'm short) to a jug if you go right.

The start is a tricky boulder problem, but then the climbing eases to the big comfortable holds that are the norm for this wall. It's not as pumpy as the other 10's, but still a good workout.

Great 5.8!
Really quite a fun climb! Some very interesting moves and holds for a 5.8. I think the very bottom might be more of a 5.9, but theres a big tree right behind it to lean on if you need a little boost.

Whee!
If you like a little bit of friction climbing, this is the one. Really interesting foot smear move at the bottom, then a fun pumpy roof above that.

Watch out for the ledge
The climb is super fun on TR, but I'm not a fan of the ledge. THe climb is below my grade, but I'm short so I have to make a really tenuous move off either some slopers or a tiny crimp to get to the next bolt. Falling there would mean some serious ankle pain. I climbed it clean and all was well, but I won't be repeating it on lead.

Fun and easy
Good first lead although it's probably a little harder than 5.7. The crux is indeed a puddle, even on dry days, BUT the hold is HUGE so it's not too bad.

Kind of tricky climbing for a 5.8 from the ground to the second bolt.
