| We enjoyed this route very much, finding it another worthy climb on this crag. The bolt is an old buttonhead but there's good gear available under the roof. |

| The second pitch, exremely enjoyable climbing, is easier than 5.8.
There is a fun variation which goes right of the big roof. Start towards the roof and surmount the left edge of the bulge/roof which blocks access to the wide crack leading to the base of the big ceiling. At the base of the wide crack angle right and up across a fun face, with edges and flakes, that will lead to the gully/chimney right of the roof. Climb a short hand crack and a chimney to the top. A little brushy, but good climbing. This variation might be minimal 5.8.
On our recent climb we cleaned some brush at the start of the first pitch, which should make for a better experience. No oak leaves in your shirt for the rest of the day.
