THE HARDPERSON'S PLAYGROUND!

All the routes are on the southwest face and get lots of sun from 11:00 until 5ish. A high concentration of excellent single pitch sport routes like Shadow Warriors and Super Sonic are contrasted by brilliant old school, huge run-out masterpieces like Body and Soul and Blackout (direct start) which may make you wonder about the "development" of our sport, the usage of the bolt and the skill and mind control of a couple of the boldest climbers of that era.
