Description

The crux is definitely the beginning. Be strong and pull through. If you're short.... well good luck.

Location

To the right of the 3 routes which share the same first bolt and in front of a skinny tree. It's hard to miss. The start has very high holds.

Protection

5 bolts

[Hide Comment] Height dependent start, I went from the right of bolt 1 which felt like 11- and I'm 6'. I did this in January and Ivy vines are still at the anchors. Climbing eases significantly after bolt 2. Jan 30, 2022
