| Fun route. I've done both the 5.7 and the 5.8 variation on the first pitch. The flakes on the 5.7 route are pretty thin and don't inspire confidence in your pro. The 5.8 variation is challenging, be sure to bring enough small cams (<0.5 camalot) and nuts for the flaring crack. |

| Great climb to start the day, stays fairly in the shade (from the face of flower) for most of the day. 1st belay station has a huge ledge with bolts. The only part I thought was "sketch" but still safe is the flakes after the first belay station (as noted in the topos from the book). The rock sounds hollow when you slap it a little. So just be careful on where you place your weight when going through that section. The slab section on the 2nd pitch was fantastic fun, protected with one bolt. |
