Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description 

Fourth route from the left on the scale wall.Climb up the slab using huge jugs with good feet. This climb is stretchy enough where it will be a good warmup, and a good excercise for someone who hasn't climbed outdoors before.

The route is a bit runout for a 5.8, but the crux is protected and near the top.

Protection 

4 bolts to a 2 bolt top anchor.
