3 out of 5 stars Get into corner earlier

Brad led it this time, getting into the corner immediately after the grassy ledge and it was more fun. On previous ascent Ben had only moved into the corner maybe 2/3 of the way up.

2 out of 5 stars Good gear practice

Ben led this without the bigger cams(no #3 or #4 Camalots) because I forgot to give them to him. It was good practice for him and he did a great job.
