Description

Good climbing that's a bit steeper and better protected than most of the climbs on Echo Rock. The moves up to and past the first bolt are SUPER greasy and show the effects of popularity. There's an optional nut placement after the first bolt if you need it.

Fun climbing with sustained balancy movement and good protection merit this route three stars out of five.
