Ethan Hill's first lead.
Perfect climb for it.

Description 

Very mellow, bolted line left of the Moby Grape dihedral. Very fun for the kids and popular with novices and fledgling leaders. If I were going to take my Mom climbing, this would be a fine choice!


Location 

Bolted line 10 meters right of unnamed 5.9 and 10 meters left of the Moby Grape dihedral. Easy for Mom and Dad to setup a TR for the Kids. Burly 50 foot approach!


Protection 

Draws.

Bryan did this one as well 20 something years ago minus the bolts. He even named it "Chris's Dream" maybe?

Easy, fun route but I can't think of a better first lead for someone. Very bolted and safe.

Fun 5.5 face climb with about 10 bolts, closely spaced, to a 2-bolt anchor with chains. Dan's first ever lead!

Will a 60m rope for toproping/rappeling work? Or are 2 ropes needed?

Basically ran up it barefoot, it was awesome.
