[Hide Comment] One of the better beginner-intermediate routes in the area. Crux for me was coming across the middle section, although it feels like difficulty for this section could vary wildly depending on what holds you can reach or what you consider on/off route. Have no idea why this has a PG-13 rating -- landings are nice and flat and mostly loose sand when I was there. Top out is a little high, but by the time you get past the brain you're really in almost no danger of falling. Apr 13, 2018

[Hide Comment] Super bummed to see the photos of the rock fall. Not Even was my first outdoor V2. This area safe to climb? Was planning a trip on March 30th. Mar 22, 2019
