Description 

Graded incorrectly (as 5.11b) in the Rock Climbing Washington Guide, Red M&Ms is a great stemming route that heads up the corner just right of George and Martha. Any actual holds on the route are small and some stemming skill is a bit of a necessity. This route started its life as a trad route, was bolted, and now chopped to make for an scary lead on thin pro. Unless one or two of the bolts magically reappear, this might be better as a TR unless you're super solid at the grade and fearless...


Protection 

Many small nuts. Bolted anchor at the top that is shared with George and Martha.

This route was chopped almost 5 years ago! It is a traditional rock climb, and should have never been bolted. I haven't climbed it, but you'll want lots of small gear like micronuts and ballnuts. When was the last time you've climbed here?
