[Hide Comment] Another fun, short route for the beginners. The 5.8 rating on this one is also really generous; it's even easier than the route to the left, There Goes the Neighborhood. I'd give it a 5.7- if MP had that as an option. Mar 16, 2009

[Hide Comment] I'd agree it is a one move wonder. The first move off the deck is the closest to 5.8. The rest of the route has bomber holds the whole way. Apr 25, 2009
