[Hide Comment] First trad lead ever!! From start to finish this is an awesome first trad lead. Chances for jamming and crack feet, but great ledges and holds along the way to keep ya warm and fuzzy.

Protects with a 3 high up to get you going. Then onto (.75-2 not that order) and finished with a couple nice nut placements.

Safe, fun, stellar trad lead!! Take your sporty friends......or don't Be safe.
