Description 

This quality route is almost all on good gray varnish. Interesting moves past thin cracks lead to a ledgy area 1/2 way up. More interesting and steeper moves up thin cracks in a flared slot lead top a ledge just below the top. Either continue up a funky thin crack (5.8/9), the chimney just right (5.9) or walk off left.


Protection 

Standard rack to 2".

A pretty fun route with interesting moves on solid rails and flakes. Pretty mellow for 5.8, I would say not harder than 5.7 at most.There is a bolted anchor on top.

Fun climbing with some interesting moves on mostly good rock, but the creaky jugs down low require some care.

Fun climbing and a great route for a leader at that level. 5.7 gym climbing that's protectable the whole way if you need it.
