[Hide Comment] I thought this route was as fun as its neighbor to the left. Even though the guidebook gives it a poor rating and considers it a squeeze job, it was apparently bolted before Bodhisattva. Aug 18, 2009

[Hide Comment] awkward start. you would think u head up to the bolt via the slab but i went right. felt weird to have to traverse away from the bolts. mellow climb. Sep 24, 2013

[Hide Comment] Went straight up the small dihedral using stem moves. That was fun. After the second bolt it was a snooze. Sep 3, 2018

[Hide Comment] Apparent line following bolts seems to disappear near the top. Moving straight through doesn't seem to provide 5.7 moves. I used the giant crack on the Left, but it is shared with the adjacent route so it seemed a little weird. I wish I could take another look; perhaps the moves in this section are just Right of the bolt line. Description does say the location is "Right of the broken crack taken by Bodhisattva (5.7)" Aug 6, 2020
