● Great addition to the crag. The upper part is awesome but the lower part is a bit squeezed between the natu… View Comment

● I thought this was just as hard, and just as good as Spectre. Quality route with varied climbing. Crux is m… View Comment

● Please avoid the use of cam hooks in soft rock (which I would consider Smith Rock to be) especially on a cl… View Comment

● Book says bring a #3 but I would have felt better with a #4. Keep your cool getting to the third bolt. Awkw… View Comment

● Getting to the first bolt is pretty scary due to flaky rock and awkward body stemming, a bolt below here wo… View Comment

● This route is too long to rappel with a single 70m rope, but it is possible to swing over left to the ancho… View Comment

● If not for the more difficult start and obscure location, the fun, easy, well-bolted upper pitches would be… View Comment

● Crux is pretty desperate slabbing for the grade but eases up quickly. Not as sustained or good as the two r… View Comment

● If you do the .11c extension, be aware that there is no anchor, at least not that I could find. There is an… View Comment

● The guidebook compares this route to Layaway Plan. If that route had loose, dirty, sharp rock, a crappy anc… View Comment

● This route is more like 115 feet long, a 70m rope is adequate to lower and TR. Bring a lot of .5 and .75 C4… View Comment
