| Fun route with nice crux section up high. |

| Fun route, varied, pumpy. The crux is quite heady; maybe not so good for the new 5.8 leader. Better to head off right to the Unsaid. |

| Fun route with an interesting crack start. However, the difficulty of the crux at the top is very height dependent, with a couple of "reachy" moves on steep rock. At 5'10", I thought the crux moves were about 5.8+, but it was a much harder crux (5.10ish) for my wife because she could not reach any of the juggy holds on the steep part. The bolts are well placed and the crux moves are well protected -- so have a go at it, regardless of your height. |

| A warm-up on this one will get your head working in the morning if you're shorter. The crux would be heady for a shorter 5.8 leader, though mainly because you have to get your feet up high before you're able to see or reach the jugs. At 5'7", I had no problem reaching the 5.8 holds that are all there, just had trouble seeing them before I set out. |
