Top Rope ascent by:
Just sweet
Love these routes, No Weld and Wintermute. Tough but doable for the average climber. Pumpy and taler than listed here. These routes have to be at least 70 to 80 feet tall.

Fun mixed trad warmup
Use a BD .75 and then a #3 to protect the route and it becomes G rated.

Runout to the 3rd bolt
Either have a strong head or take some gear with you on this one. The climbing to the 3rd bolt isn't that hard, but it will mess with your head. I took a #1 camelot with me (some dudes told me too), they were wrong, it was a little too big. I would say take either a 0.5 or a 0.75 cam with you.
