Description 

Climbing is on stellar green rock with fun roof moves half way up. There are some extremely closely spaced bolts on this climb (very un-Mt.Lemmon) that can cause dangerous rope rubbing if the leader lowers off. Better to save fraying your rope and rap. Well worth climbing.


Protection 

8 bolts to chain anchors

It was fun on TR and I can't wait to go back to try it on lead.
