Description Two v. fine pitches -- the first up to an exciting roof (which is more traversed than surmounted: right off a big horn, then back left on big holds), the second with a steep flake/corner of liebacking and jamming.
Comfortable ledge between pitches.
One seasoned Gorger I know calls this the best 5.10 in the ORG.
Protection 9 bolts on each pitch. Two single rope (60 m.) rappels to descend.

| I might call it the best 5.10 sport climb in the country. |

| Really really fun! The first pitch was surprisingly easy. The second was surprisingly hard and sustained. I remember thinking that I would certainly grease off at any moment, but somehow kept moving upwards anyway. |

| Actually if you reach up from the ginormous hold under the roof you can reach a HUGE super bomber pocket and kick your feet out. This bi-passes the traverse. A very fun move! |

| 9/10 climb - loses a point only b/c there's still a bit of bat shit to be negotiated on p2. But that won't kill ya. |

| If you know how to bandaloop, you can swing over to a bolt on Wooly Bogger, climb up a bit and set up a toprope on it. Superfly is Sooper rad. |

| A must do if you're in the Gorge. Don't even think about only doing the 1st pitch, the 2nd is also great! |

| There is bat shit EVERYWHERE on this climb... Rather nasty but still super rad climb! |

| This route can be done in one long enduro pitch if you have enough draws. Don't miss the cliffhanger maneuver on P1. |
