3 out of 5 stars Only Second Pitch

Climbed P2 after Pollux. First two moves are fun/exposed, after that kinda boring. Wanted to shoot straight up to Alcoa ledge, but couldn't protect it. No balls.

2 out of 5 stars Good access to anchors

Interesting V1 boulder problem at the bottom leads to uninteresting climbing to the ledge.
