[Hide Comment] A fun climb, easy for the grade. Only found 7 bolts, #7 of 8 seems to be missing. Easy terrain in this runout. Could probably place a finger to hand size cam here, but I forgot to look closely. May 7, 2012

[Hide Comment] Only found 5-6 of the bolts. Easy run out, but terrifying for a beginning leader. Jul 30, 2017

[Hide Comment] Only 6 bolts, there's about 15-20 feet of easy sloped run out between 5 and 6 Aug 21, 2018

[Hide Comment] Super fun easy lead minus the runout on the second to last bolt before the chains. As others have said, easy terrain (pretty much a low-angle scramble) to the next bolt but. But as a taller climber, it felt awkward clipping the next bolt. Felt like I was gonna tip off leaning back. It would be nice to get another bolt up there to feel more secure. Maybe bring a cam or nut to throw into something? Jul 12, 2020

[Hide Comment] The obvious pro I saw looked like a #4 (too big for #3) Jul 30, 2020

[Hide Comment] Felt mellow for the grade. I’d only recommend bringing a #4 camalot for a beginner leader; the runout is on 5.easy terrain. An experienced leader will find a cam unnecessary. Nov 1, 2020
