| Nice lead, the plus part of the grade comes at the end (crimpy) |

| Not sure when it happened, but there is now a fun 5.8 next to this on the right and there appear to be some easy slab climbs even further right. Both the 5.9 and 5.8 stay dry enough to climb even in heavy rain. |

| There will be wet holds at the top in the spring, but you can avoid them. |

| The first route to the immediate right is Dream of a Bee (5.8). The slab climb further right is Cordelia (5.8). Wadcutter is a heady lead for a 5.9. |
