[Hide Comment] Rather than "several" the approach is 2-3 minutes. Apr 15, 2013

[Hide Comment] 2-3 qualifies as several. You guys don't walk in Maine? Or use guidebooks and incredibly obvious features to locate crags?

[Hide Comment] The High-water Traverse is good on it's own but also used to add length and difficulty to the routes on the right side of Hell.
