Comments: When Climbing this route be EXTREMELY careful of loose rock. When I last did this climb there were multiple suitcase size rocks and large detatched flakes that are ready to go and they wont stop until they are in the road.

Comments: This was a really good climb. Being on the arete was pretty fun! The most intimidating part of the climb is trying not to knock anything off on to the cars below.

Comments: Just went and did it. While I was climbing and when I tested the top piton it pulled out on me. On the repel down I placed it back in and hammered it in as hard as I could with a carabiner. It is solid for a fall but if there is much movement on it it could be dangerous. If you are thinking about going up and climbing it bring a hammer to make it a little more secure for the next people that come along.

Comments: The anchors are getting pretty bad at the top. Hopefully me and a buddy will get out soon and replace them but if somebody beats us that would even be better. The chains on top of jerusalem are looking pretty bad as well.

Comments: The second pitch overhang was pretty tough I would defiantly say that it was harder than 5.7.

Comments: I couldn't find one peice of pro until I was atleast 30 feet up. I think that this should have a R rating on it.

Comments: this was a good route however I felt compared to other 5.8's around Little that this route was more like a 5.7. It protects super well and gives you a little bit of everything

Comments: A really great route with bolts placed at just the right places. It is runout between 2 and 3, but it really makes the climbing interesting; however, when you do hit tougher ground there is a blot always right there for you.

Comments: I would have a hard time calling that a 5.11 I would say the rating is around a 10c. Better rated as a boulder problem at V1. However rated though it is a enjoyable little problem to get on.
