A Portland buildering classic. It's almost a full city block long, and it would extend for the entire block if it weren't for an impassable doorway covered in plywood towards the end. No move is harder than V3 or so, but it's long enough to warrent the 5.12 rating.
It traverses a long retaining wall below the parking lot of the St. Mary's Acadamy school.
The route features thin crimps throughout, and contains a tricky crux off of a mono pocket and another thin crux at the end. It's a great place to stop by while downtown and it can be pretty effective at building endurance for the pumpy crimpy sport climbs in Oregon.
