Best belay situation ever.


Description 

This is a really good moderately overhanging 5.11. Crux down low leads to larger holds but pumpy climbing with a redpoint crux up high. There are a couple of kneebars on this route if desired. Scott originally rated this climb 11a. Try it and see what you think.


Location 

In the alcove 4th complete bolt line from the left up on the right hand platform. The route with the largest holds.


Protection 

Bolts, Chains

I don't really like giving this route 3 stars, but 2 doesn't seem right either. We should be able to assign HALF stars.

Highly recommend bringing 2 double-length runners for the belay stance at the base of this climb.

Someone was nice enough to leave two nice biners at the top, making it easy to go up and down without having to untie.

This is a pure and simple steep jug haul. My type of climb! I didn't lead it but it will be a fun lead next time! Top rope it through the biners so that if you pop off you gotta start over:)

5.11a if all hold's stay in place. Those chaulky slick hold's make it hard enough on TR.

Steep and pumpy. Making the reach between the 2nd and 3rd bolts seems far at the end of the day. Epoxy holds are a nice touch. If they were to blow, this thing would be nearly impossible.
