A view up the undulating crack of "Beginnings." As you can see, it is possible to sew the crack up with gear; however, much of the gear is fiddly and hard to place.<br> <br> The face to the right of Beginnings is a fun top-rope and goes at 5.8-5.10 depending on your path.
Set an anchor for top roping, tie into the top rope end and clip the other end to your belay loop. Now you ready to practice trad lead on a top rope.
