Bloody Bush 

Excellent climb. P1 is steeper than expected, but still 5.5. And protections are there when you need them. P2 is the money pitch, a very fun traverse. Leader should protect the second, if second falls on traverse, you might have to lower the second to ledge and reclimb.

P1 is happy fun jug pulling, with some face mixed in. P2 starts off easy, but, has a spicy traverse with not so good hands or feet.

P1 is a fantastic corner/crack. The standard P1 belay can result in a lot of rope drag as the P2 does a zig-zag due to the traverse. This can be reduced by bypassing the tree at the P1 belay and going up to the next big tree ~15' higher up.

Very nice climb. Traverse is awesome, but could be wet and slippery - one of those "big hands, no feet" traverses. Make sure to protect your second on the traverse.

Building off what dolgio said, there is a solid placement above the crux so your second can pull through the crux on a top-rope and not worry about swinging.

Lead this yesterday. If you're doing both pitches, it's definitely better to lead up past the rap station at the top right of P1 climbing over towards the Rusty Trifle belay. Then do the Bloody Bush belay for P2 from there. You definitely avoid drag that way. A bit tricky to protect the sketchy traverse on P2. All in all, great climb!!

I thought it was a bit easier than most 6's, like Moonlight or Frog's Head. Also, i found the belays to be a bit funky - do what Neil says above, it works out nicely. The second belay near the tree with the detached block. Rap from the tree or do a short little scramble 3rd pitch to the top and do 3 raps from bolted anchors on Ribs/Calisthenic.

We accidentally picked up an extra Williams guide at the base of this climb on Thursday, April 5th. My apologies. PM me if this was your book and we will mail it back to you.

P1 - My partner was leading, seemed like he went up quite a ways on the steep thin face before placing gear -- but maybe that was because he was psyched to place a big piece (#3 Camalot I sorta remember).

P2 - My partner (following the advice of previous comments - Thanks!) got the P1 belay high enough so that after going up the corner just a short ways I found P2 to be sort of a diagonal "straight" shot going up and right under the overhangs. No rope drag after placing my first piece out well away from the corner with a double runner on it.

Done the obvious way, I'd say the crux of P2 will seem pretty scary for an indoor gym climber not knowing what to do with no obvious footholds and no colored plastic. For an experienced outdoor climber accustomed to balancy friction steps, might seem more like 5.5.

I finished P2 at a ledge with three obvious pine trees. I used the high middle one for my P2 anchor, so I could belay my partner directly off the anchor above me. Both of the other trees had slings and rappel rings. The lower one to the north (climber's right) was more awkward to set up -- but we put our double ropes thru that one, and found that it gave us a clean vertical line to the ground (over the start of Wrist) -- after the rappel our ropes came down easily. (But I don't think that tree or line works with a single rope).

Some guidebooks say that both pitches are about 100ft, but seemed that if you stop P2 at the obvious rap trees, it's much less than that.

Fun climbing on both pitches.

Fun climb. First pitch is fun 5.6 with a few questionable holds/blocks. P2 is a two-move wonder. The first move off the ledge was a bit weird/awkward for me. From there it's an easy(if you find the best way) traverse into a high-step/lieback crux then up much easier climbing to the top.

For both pitches, it is optimal to skip the first encountered belay/rap station. On the first pitch, continue up and left another 15 or 20 ft to another tree and belay there. At the top out on pitch two, do not go right to the first belay/rap tree(rapping from here has unpleasant consequences), but go up a few more feet to a rap station on a tree behind a protruding chockstone/flake.
