The 3rd route from the left on Sayers Wall. It has the obvious start in the middle of the wall. Smearing with good protection. Seems hardest at the start, move up and left until a solid finish up to the anchor. Solid climb and worth doing.
Protection
Very well bolted - 5 bolts to a solid 2 bolt anchor.
The route has 5 bolts to a 2-bolt anchor. Agreed that the start is the trickiest portion of the route.Very nice slab about 15 feet to first bolt. There is 25 foot (or so) between bolts 3 and 4. The climb is a ladder of ledges and jugs at that point, but perhaps something to consider if throwing a new leader on this route.
As others have stated, the first couple bolts are the hardest portion of the climb. It is an enjoyable climb and the view is great. Thanks to all who put the effort into developing this area...it's great!!!
I really like this route, Getting to the first bolt is the most interesting part but once you get there it gets a lot easier. Between the 3rd and 4th bolt there's a long section but it's got awesome texture on it. The belay platform at the top is large and has a great view. This was also the first route I lead climbed myself. Definitely a good practice route for people who have never lead climbed outside.
