Description

AKA 'Bear Down'

This route starts with some ledges and moves up through excellent climbing with decent rests to a tough anchor clip. This route can serve as a nice warm-up for the harder routes at the Bear's Den or for the Lode.

We back-cleaned the first draw (shared bolt with Mooch) which helped with rope drag; certainly not mandatory though.

Location

Second route from the right side of the "Steep Wall" area. Just left of Mooch (shares the first bolt).

Protection

7 bolts to anchor
