[Hide Comment] Just added new steel lower off carabineers. Please don't steal them or top rope on them. Mar 6, 2022
[Hide Comment] Kind of difficult to navigate on upper column but when you find the right beta its a fun finish. On the right side of the column is an easy rest place before reaching for the anchors if needed. Jul 15, 2022
