5 out of 5 stars Need good footwork

Since I was new to crack climbing I struggled with footholds, luckily I was able to stem part of way up with good hand jamming. Don't do this for warmup, instead try route just to right 30 feet.

4 out of 5 stars Warmer on second pitch

The breeze off the water cools off the 1st pitch, seemed like five to ten degrees warmer on higher pitches. Led P1, though didn't feel comfortable to do anymore leading after that. favorite pitch was P3. When rappeling from 2nd rap rings with two60 meter rope clear the knot over the lip. We had the knot snag at the top and had to jummar up to unsnag the knot.

4 out of 5 stars Can be done in only 4 pitches

Thanh and I did this in 4 pitches, about 180 feet per pitch. Careful on the fourth pitch traverse before heading up the open chimney; there are some weak handholds (tap on rock before grabbing) that are ready to break off.

4 out of 5 stars Well protected except third pitch

long sustained 5.7 pitches. Third pitch was difficult to protect slab for first 30 feet, no problem from 30 feet on when route goes more vertical. On third pitch some small chicken heads gave way under my feet, perhaps because it had rained the other day and they had softened

4 out of 5 stars Down Climbed from mid P2

This was my first 5.7 route. Stayed within the chimney to stay safe (P1). On the sencond pitch leader had problems climbing over the horn about 40 feet short of completing the route. We could have aid climbed voer the horn but we were a bit worried climbing up the final 90 degree vertical crack having had limited expereince climbing cracks. Down climbed to first belay station and rapelled from a sling.
