| Using the tree at the ledge? That tree doesn't look like it'll be there forever. Don't use tree and let's grade this climb for what it is, a good 5.9. Either that, or maybe I was having an off day when I climbed it. Anyway, this route is fun with three distinct cruxes. It climbs like three stacked boulder problems with breaks in between. |

| The tree is no longer. Solid 5.9 now. Watch yourself climbing above the ledge. A fall here with a loose belay would equal broken ankles, or impalement on the agave growing right under the bolt. The last three feet are rather grainy and crumbly. |

| Tree is gone. If you're short, this is harder because climbing the arette without feet is tough. |

| Use the two holds just under the horn just right of the bolt above the ledge. Get your feet on and pull, its a fun move and that horn is money. |
