This route is 5.11D if done as intended. After the last bolt which at one time was the only bolt. The route goes up and to the right on thin sightly overhanging face to the belay with no pro! Most commonly the crack sees all the action by most who visit. But for others the crack is just a vehicle to get to the real business the face above. Back in the 80's this route was considered a real test piece here at Indian cove. I think it still is.
The lower section takes plenty of gear, it is definitely NOT "R". A little awkward/balancy at times, but fun climbing. Anchors is two bolts with the fat Metolius rap hangers (i.e. no chain/rings); the second bolt is a little hard to see from the ground because of the angle it's oriented.
Maybe ? My thinking is if you are unable to walk away its X. But I been wrong about these kind things before. I worked on this route off and on for years its pretty run-out. Give it a go ! Tell me what you think ? Thanks for the Props :)
