[Hide Comment] Done this a bunch of times now to warm up and always like it. Yes, 60m rope is totally fine to rap off with. And, the last bit may seem runout for the onsight, but the holds are great and staying vertical on the line of the climb is the way to go. Oct 13, 2010

[Hide Comment] great route had a blast with the top section.
right bolt is loose at rap station, the bolt itself will spin slightly with finger pressure. probably just needs a quick wrench and it'll be good, seems solid otherwise Jul 8, 2013
