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.

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.
