Pitch 1 is partially rebolted, but not recommended until complete.
Pitch 2 is a nice, fully rebolted knob pitch, which starts with a 10a pull-up move that may be tough for shorties.
Pitch 3 has the 5.11 crux and button-heads. Based on the reasonable spacing and stubbornness of old bolts we replaced, a brave slab-master might want to give it a try...?
For a very good two-pitch variation, start on Conan's Crack to the left. The lower part of Conan's is a semi-fun 5.9 wide crack with stemming and good gear (standard rack to a #5 cam). At the first ledge (before the 10a lieback move), walk 30' right (easy but spooky) to the obvious Masters belay, then climb pitch 2! Dec 16, 2017
