Only 2 bolts so it might be a scary lead if you prefer more than one bolt per twenty five feet of cheese grater.

My son and I led Turtle yesterday. There are few hand and foot holds making this the hardest 5.6 we have ever climbed. The rock is very granular and it bites into climbing rubber but that means climbing on friction and slicing up finger tips, a psychological strain.

This was easy slab climbing. Great and varied holds. Should be no problem for any veteran granite climbers.
