Sep 11, 2023 · Lead / Flash. It took us two hours to find the right spot (we were looking at the wrong wall). Once we found the right wall (thanks to a photo post on here) we were able to identify the route fairly quickly because 1. it was the farthest climb to the right and 2. it has the glue-in bolts. Once we found the route it took me 23 minutes to lead and clean it. We returned with a youth group two days later and climbed it again. That time I probably led it in 10 minutes. Beta: The first part requires some creativity and use of some smaller holds. This is the hardest part of the whole climb. As others have said, the rest of the climb is best going straight up. Lots of great flakes and solid small-medium footholds. I pulled one small chunk of rock off of a flake. I didn't find this climb as loose as one reviewer did, but that one flake did have a small part break and may brake again. Loved this climb. It was a great first-lead-in-a-while for me since the last time I climbed was three or so years ago. Our 12-13 yr. old youth all top-roped it with ease. It was a great first climb for them.
