[Hide Comment] We were captivated by the two 10a's on the beautiful rock with black streak easily visible from the parking lot. Both are good with interesting climbing but don't seem to get climbed much. The left one in unnamed in the book, we are calling it 'Scary and Scenic Arete'. Crux is probably getting to the second bolt. Large distance between last two bolts too which could be fixed with a large cam or a tricky thread I was able to get. Climb up the streak has a name but I can't remember it. Easier than it looks from ground but the crux (again getting to second bolt) is pretty hard for the grade. May 5, 2016
