Description 

Climb the dihedral that eventually becomes slabby and angles to the right. Surmount this to a series of easier ledges and continue upward. Take one of several variations to the top. These ledges make this route a good place to practice multipitch climbing.

Location 

Rose bush is one of the first routes you see on the Minnesota strip. As the trail comes around to reveal the cliff it is the inside corner immediated in front of you.

Protection 

Nuts, Cams, and Hexes, nothing bigger than hand sized is needed. Standard top rope setup, extra webbing (60 ft should be more than sufficient) for trees and spread out placements.
