Description
The Sky is Falling is a nice route with a little bit of all types of climbing. The first 10-15 feet is small crimpers. Then it moves to some really nice, easy jugs, over past the ledge onto the flake. Then there is a nice balance move to the top. The crux is probably the balance move. It's a pretty simple yet fun route.
Location
This is located 15 feet left of Entry Level on a black streak. It is easily recognizable by the flake halfway up.
