| A very enjoyable and long, for the area, route. A few bolts a couple of cams and beautiful rock. The last 10 feet have some potential loose stuff, tread carefully as you near the top anchors. Best staging area at the Narrows, gets sun in the morning. |

| Super fun! There is a cool variation if you go right at the 5th bolt and make your way over the roof. No pro though. |

| A lower anchor has been added where the good climbing stops and the choss begins. It takes away about fifteen feet of climbing, but makes it a much safer outing. And you can still go to the higher anchor if you want. Enjoy. |

| My girlfriend and I found a wedding band at the base of this route on Sunday, Sept. 26, 2010. Shoot me an e-mail with a description.... |

| I placed an interesting #2 that removed some stress through the gear section. |

| A fun and lengthy climb! One of my favorite 5.8/5.9 climbs in the greater Roaring Fork Valley area. There are five bolts before the gear section. In the crack, I used 3 pieces: two #2 BD C4s and a #0.75. Two more bolts after crack to top. |

| Probably the best moderate climb in the Narrows. It's definitely my favorite. Like Brian had pointed out, just a couple pieces are necessary. At the minimum, 2 red BD C4s should suffice. |
