The first bolt is high but on a super good bolder above the plaque. Mantel another Boulder for the second clip then finesse your way up some crimps to a bomber ledge to clip the third. Crux is from third to fourth. Very balancy on slab and crimps.

[Hide Comment] Fair 5.10d...sign on route gives a sandbagged 5.11a...most of the climb is 5.10- but crux is reasonably a 5.11 careful balanced mantle. Poorly bolted, falling at crux will result in decking on a ledge unless belayer is very attentive. May 29, 2012

[Hide Comment] Maybe the sun was making me weak but the crux felt hard. I think some holds have broken off. Bolting is not ideal at all. Apr 22, 2018

[Hide Comment] I would avoid this route for the time being. The second and third bolt hangers are freely spinning on the bolts. Extremely dangerous given how low those bolts are to the ground. Jul 10, 2019
