Description
Recluse is an awesome route. The moderate climbing is better than the crux, but the crux is a fun boulder problem in its own right.
The start is hard for the grade, period. Some have called it 5.11b. Others call it "solid" 5.10. After the first two or three moves, the locks and jams are bomber and you can cruise one of the best moderate cracks at the crag to the top. Move left at one point up high to join the finish of Bird's Nest.
