[Hide Comment] This looks mad fun... Anyone use the bolt and or tree on top as a TR anchor? I don't currently own a crash pad but would still like to give it a try on TR for protection. Aug 3, 2010

[Hide Comment] One of the best climbs at Boat Rock. Don't miss the right hand crimp right before the top!
