[Hide Comment] Kinda more like an 8 if you ask me and there are biner's up there that are about worn through. I wouldn't trust em but a lot of people do. Didn't have any to replace either. Jun 25, 2007

[Hide Comment] I agree with the Jason Stevens guidebook: one of the best 5.9's in the canyon! Might be an 8+, but it's a fun route nonetheless. Oct 22, 2010

[Hide Comment] Good introduction to Maple Canyon. First lead in the area. Went in late October, got good grip on the shoes but the rock was a bit cold! Fun route for sure! Oct 30, 2012
