| Uhhh... What?
that's a solo line, a child could climb that, and probably would, if their parents weren't keeping such a sharp eye on them.
if this were a route, it would barely be fifth class.
really.
well, ok. more like 4th+ class. It's the downclimb for soloing slips routes, fer cris-sakes!

| Um, yeah. Thats not 4th class. People downclimb 5th class all the time, the Casual Route on the Diamond has been downclimbed solo, does that make it 4th class? |

| NOT 4th class. Somewhere between 5.3-5.5 feels right. Nice for drytooling since it's so dirty anyways. |

| There's no need for Stymingersfink's hating... This is simply a good "learning" route.
Yes, this route is extremely easy, but it's a great place to learn to place gear, with easy rests everywhere, almost zero risk of falling, and ample placement opportunities. Also a good route to bring kids or timid beginners to. |
