Description Raindance is a classic route... I was skeptical but it is really good. Well left of the Davidson Wall and just right of the black rock near the pond, partly obscured by trees.

| I really really enjoyed leading this route. Fun climbing and great pro. This was some nice face climbing to mix up a day of mostly pure crack climbing. |

| I am pretty sure the FA of this was Jim Haisley with me belaying. Just a bit after a summer monsoon. Very fun pitch, much better than it looked from the ground. |

| An excellent route with great position & exposure, and a suprising amount of face climbing. |
