Description 

Nice exposure on solid rock. One of the better climbs on the Ruins. A bolt protects the initial face up to a mellow crack system with great gear. Continue up four bolts on the steeper face to the anchor.


Protection 

7 draws, single set of stoppers

For an expert in passive pro it might be all stoppers, but most people would want to take some small cams on this. It felt more like 10a than 10b.

Medium stoppers and a few small cams do the trick. Only a few pieces needed as the upper section is bolt protected.
