Has some fun moves. Definitely surprisingly stiffer than it looks from the ground.

First day to the park. On-site lead Vitamin V. Wish I could say I agree with the ratings. In my very limited experience, I would give it a 5.8-. Fun climb! I'll be back for more of it and its neighbors.

Are any of the cracks here good enough to hold gear? It looks like there a lot of bolted lines with natural pro...Tamara, by the looks of the ethics here it's probably more likely that you understood jamming better than the majority of the people who have climbed this crack, thus your downgrade.
