Description Suggest change

An old school ground-up route with fun movement on big holds and mostly good rock; some mandatory soloing. There are a couple spots with choss but you get good pro nearby and falls would be clean. The soloing sections are short and more like boulder problems with decent rock. Overall, a worthwhile route to do once if you are solid at the grade and style.

P1 Climb a water groove (5.6, no pro) for ten feet and scramble up 3rd class ledges. Body belay, use questionable cams in pockets, or let the second solo too. 

P2 Climb unprotected overhanging jugs (V1, rock is actually pretty good) to a bolt 15 feet up. I had my belayer cloved in to two cams in weird choss pockets and give me a bouldering style spot off the big ledge. Follow a crack up some chossy sections and thought provoking movement with good pro in sections of solid rock between moves. One more bolt and follow better/easier rock to a ledge with two bolts. 

P3 Climb a 5.8 corner/chimney straight up. Good rock, good pro. Like Birds in a Rut's corner but better quality in every way. End at a ledge with two bolts.

Descend left past Round River's anchors and around to the back side. Rap or down climb 4th class ledges.
