[Hide Comment] Not recommended. Poor climbing alongside a junky crack. Some loose blocks. Apr 7, 2013

[Hide Comment] Two stars. Recommended. Puzzling start to fun balance moves. Shares anchors with "Too Easy for John" on the right. Jul 16, 2013

[Hide Comment] Might be more positively received if it weren't such a sandbag. Feels ~10b to me (after climbing more than once). Maybe there is a sequence to make it 5.9... Oct 29, 2017

[Hide Comment] First few moves feel hard for the grade, but it’s a fun warmup route nonetheless. Oct 29, 2018

[Hide Comment] Good solid holds. Nice movement. Harder than the other 5.8 Battle of Insecurity. Good for beginners or for a warm-up. Other climbers in the group thought the route was confusing and difficult. Nov 8, 2018

[Hide Comment] Pretty good, a tad hard for the average Coulee 5.8, a bit dangerous for someone at their limit. 7 days ago
