Climber nearing crux


Description 

The namesake climb is pretty good (and soft for the grade?)... climb up very steep rock past some sharp incuts. Fun moves.


Protection 

A few bolts to a lower-off.

I thought the idea of posting routes online was to give others directions to the route..... the description for "Sweet Pain" doesn't help one locate the route.

I'm not trying to critize, just making a helpful observation.

Sweet Pain is one of those soft Red Rocks routes. The grade is closer to 11c. It's still a great route just heavily grade inflated.

very soft for the grade. 11c maybe... still fun!
