Description:
Starting from Tarzan, go down the hill towards the river. . There are two bolted routes on the face that runs paralell to the river. Neither of the climbs are in the guidebook. THis is the route on the left (as you face the wall) The rating is my best guess.Descent Options:
first bolt is not missing.Just runs it out a little.The lower section was so easy I didnt' think it needed the extra bolt

I thought over the counter might be harder. Not a bad route.

Almost
First lead climb at Pictured Rocks, didn't quite get. Just got stuck at the crux.
Giving it a PG 13 merely for the belay, no good spot on the hill, and one of the step on the hill is now missing leaving a rod exposed out of the ground.
