[Hide Comment] Good route. Wish it was longer. Definitely easier than the book grade. Apr 24, 2023
[Hide Comment] I think Chatt Steel guidebook has halfway & misguided mislabeled.
I left 2 biners on top of this popular warm up to facilitate cleaning.
PLEASE TELL ALL YOUR LITTLE FRIENDS TO LEAVE THE BINERS AT THE TOP.
