Description 

I don't know if the route name was tongue in cheek, but I think this is the only route I've ever given a bomb rating to. If you can find it, you will find a wandery route that sort of zig zags up the sandy face. I won't try to describe where it is. If you are that masochistic, find it on your own; it adds to the charm to be so disappointed after searching for it among the underbrush and poison ivy. If it were clean and climbed more often it could be better.

Protection 

Bolts. Please use your own gear for top rope. Please bring an extra biner and if the ones up top look bad or don't easily clip or shut, please replace it. It's good karma.

I thought it actually had some fun moves, albeit dirty from never getting climbed. I was a little uncomfortable lowering from the anchors, skinny chain tightened directly to the bolt with no hangers

hey jeff...

i'm sure this is on the list for anchor replacement... if you are interested in helping out, you can volunteer your time or give $$ to the MCA so we can buy new hardware.
