This climb is so cool looking and close to the road; you see it EVERY time you drive past it.....it's begging you to come over and climb it. I climbed this in the early 80's with Lori Graf, and we didn't know it's name, it's rating, or even if it had been done (Dunn?) before. I struggled and huffed and puffed on it, and battled it out and was able to get it (and I usually don't climb 5.11)....but it was a challenge for me. I believe I left an old tube chock at the top for a rap anchor....I bet it's not there anymore. This is a good climb , especially if you like to "get physical."....sort of a must-do if you frequent the Park.... you can only pass it by so many times... then you must stop off and send......
