Description This climb starts in the back of site 41, about 18' from the picnic table to the right. Start behind a creosote in a trough/groove with a hole down low and a bolt. Climb this to a ledge, then move left and climb the face above past three bolts to a two bolt anchor/rap. A direct variation (5.10b/c) starts about 15' to the left. Climb past a horizontal and a bolt to the ledge and join the regular route.
Protection 4 bolts, anchors (all 3/8")

| Not a bad choice for someone learning to lead, as the bolt spacing is pretty user-friendly. This was our daughter's first lead, indoor or outdoor. |

| That route name has got to be somewhat uncomfortable for your daughters first lead..... unless she is a late bloomer in the climbing game. Tell me she is like 25 or more..... |

| @russ Heh, heh. No worries, she's 23, very new to climbing, and fascinated/perplexed by route names. "Noriega Does Panama" had her scratching her head (as she dangled from the first bolt, trying to lead it). Anyway, Happy New Year, Russ -- I hope this is a stellar year for you & your biz. Maybe I'll help you out later this year and take a ledge and haul bag off your hands. |

| Led the route today with the direct start variation. A nice upper wall with plenty of protection. The lower direct start is basically a boulder problem with the bolt totally protecting the move. |
