Description
Hidden Gold is a well protected moderate that takes a line up the middle of an attractive face with plentiful holds.
Stem off a boulder to start or climb direct and after passing a low crux wander upwards enjoying the solid, well-featured stone. This would be a good lead for somebody just getting their lead head together.
Protection
4 bolts, chain anchors
(all bolts are 1/2" SS)
