Description 

This route is a fun one. The line is not particulary inspiring, but the climbing is good. I am not sure if the "s" rating is too much, but there did seem to be a runout directly above the first belay.

To locate the route look for a right slanting crack/seam that leaves a ledge near a tree.

P1-(5.8) Follow the crack/seam up and right to a belay. The climbing is really fun and engaging.

P2-(5.9) Climb up towards some weird quarter inch bolts (runout). Step to the right and follow a good crack up to a belay.

P3-(5.8) Climb up apron (bolts) to a crack and steep face.

P4-(5.4) Continue over blocky terrain.

P5-(5.8) Climb up fragile rock (bolts and gear).

P6-(5.8) Make a move around a corner and traverse left and up the ridge.

Protection 

Standard rack. I think all belays are bolted.
