| This one is 10D. There is only one hard move between the first and second bolt. The rest of the route is 10b. |

| My good friend got on this route as her first 5.11. I'd say it's not going to hurt anyone to let the grade stand as is. At 5'2", the crux was plenty hard for me. The climbing on this route is really pleasant, and it offers a nice break from the hot sun in the middle of the day. |

| 11a in the book, and pretty soft at that. |

| 10D/11A I agree... I didn't really feel there was a "crux" just consistent climbing. |
