[Hide Comment] A beautiful line, runout at top, but easier going, obviously. A couple small cams would have helped. Reminded me of short version of Lady in Red in Lower Devils, though not as hard. Sep 21, 2009

[Hide Comment] Very nice climb with great movement. Deserves its own set of anchors. At the very least a warning about the 30' runout to the anchors on slates day off (which happen to be quite a bit to the right) would be nice. The runout climbing is easy but a loose rock could ruin your day. I finger sized piece or two would work great. Oct 17, 2010

[Hide Comment] Great line fun to climb. The runout at the top is no bid deal. Just tread softly. Mar 25, 2013

[Hide Comment] Really good positive edging in a small sea of hard to see holds. Warrants a proper anchor:) Mar 15, 2014

[Hide Comment] I added a bolt to get to the new anchor yesterday. It should be much safer. May 16, 2016
