Description:

An easy and straight forward route that was put up in the early 60's the same day as two other routes like this one. The route follows an obvious corner/crack system with a section of slightly steeper section of the belay of the second pitch. The human drill has been to work here placing a single beefy bolt at the top of pitch 1 and pitch 2, besides that this is a good route for beginners placing gear and taking care with loose rock although the majority of the climbing is quite solid.
