[Hide Comment] Not a bad climb, just too short to warrant anything more than 1 star. May 3, 2015

[Hide Comment] I found the 10s to the left and right right easier to do for one reason: the bolting is way more intuitive/safer feeling on them.

If you are a nervous leader, this isn't for you. I'd hope we can consider adding 2 more bolts (one at the beginning, and one in between 2 and 3). Nov 15, 2021
