This was my first route at Mission Gorge. I don't know if this route is typical for 5.4 at MG, but it felt pretty tough for 5.4! Think 5.7 on smoooooth rock....

For a 2nd pitch, worked left from the belay, finishing up on Skyline Pinnacle (5.7)...a nice route on high friction, quality rock. Felt true to grade.

There are a two ledges that could be the start of the route. The first move off of the upper ledge into the crack system is a little tricky for a 5.4 rating, though the rest of the route is straight forward. 5.6 is a more accurate considering the first move.
