| Fun route starting well right of Slippery When Wet...goes pretty much straight up......crux protects well (I think I put in two pieces) and it shares anchors with top of 1st pitch of slippery.. The first time I did this climb it was an accident. I thought I was on Slippery... I was thinking to myself that Slippery was the most sandbagged route ever! Link BBC with second pitch of slippery for 2 good pitches. |

| I disagree with Wes about the protection. Textbook cam placements protect the crux, but they are in somewhat questionable rock--could pull out and the bolt would not keep you off the ground at that point. But maybe I have not been climbing enough lately to be objective, who knows. Also, FYI, this route is right at 100 ft, rather than 80 as indicated above and in the guidebook. |

| Did this route again a few weeks ago. I would not recomend it to a 5.10a fledgling trad climber. Fun moves, good rock, but gear is less than obvious if your a newbie, with big fall potentential if your gear blows. Do the time, learn the ropes, then get on the sharp end on this route. |

| Bob Kerry and I put this up and I agree with Jim's comment--there is very good pro but it's a bit tricky. Still, the climbing is pretty good. |

| Much more fun than it looked from the ground and the protection felt right on par with other routes at Windy Point. |
