Description Suggest change

This line was started by Joe McLoughlin, but he had to abandon it to attend to romantic responsibilities, leaving it to Ed to finish, hence the name. Climb up ledges that provide weird mantel-ish moves. Grab some decent face holds. Continue up face to anchors using some horizontal cracks and face holds. Note- there are a couple well chocked in blocks that moves if you grab them. You don't need to use them and they have been like that for 25+ years - no need to chalk them up with 'X's or break them up. Good practice for rocky and unstable relationships!

Good climb to warm up on if you want to do Three easy pieces and/or squall. Just remember to do more than one lap!

Location Suggest change

Route right in front of you when you walk up on trail. Kind of looks like super blunt arete.
