Comments: I loved this route. Three pitches of beautiful rock with great belay ledges. The first pitch is straight-forward and not too difficult. The start of the second pitch is the crux but the difficult section lasts only about 10 feet. The last pitch is steep with sustained 5.7 moves and is the most exciting. Protection is good on all three pitches. A large cam (#4 friend) is useful in two locations.

Comments: The first pitch is fun climbing with good protection. The offwidth crux at the start of the second pitch is not rated correctly in my opinion. I'd put it closer to a 5.10 than a 5.7. It protects well with medium sized cams, but I found it very difficult to climb. So if you aren't comfortable leading past the 5.7 level, I'd recommend rapping off after the first pitch. First pitch: ***, Second pitch: zero stars.
