Description Suggest change

Despite the easy grade, this is NOT a good first trad lead. There is minimal gear, committing moves, and loose rock. However if you like long runouts and loose blocks, then this might be the route for you.

P1, 5.7: start at a large boulder below a large roof about 2/3 of the way up the wall. Follow a crack straight up to the ledge, and then go slightly right and up a short offwidth.  Above the offwidth, there is a large ledge to belay from. Back the pin up with a small cam in one of the pockets above the pin.

P2, 5.7: traverse to the right of the roof. There are minimal gear placements. Pull up over a smaller roof to the right of the main roof, and go up the easy gully. Climb the easy chimney before topping out.

Location Suggest change

Go to the next obvious crack to the right of Rocky Road. It starts at a large boulder.

Protection Suggest change

A standard rack to 3" for P1 and something really small for P2.
