| Randy and David, please feel free to correct my description. The difficulty rating is what Mark told me you told him :). I think it's harder than 10b because of couple moves at the bolt. |

| The bottom starts up a short bit of very easy funky slabby crack before you get to the bulge with the small corner. The rock is somewhat crumbly here, but the gear looked OK. The moves are relatively easy here too. Once through this bulge, the rock quality goes way up through the fun crux and upper corner with it's nice layback finger locks. ..a good route, with the only down side being the short crumbly patch. Another going over with a brush and scraper would do it wonders, but well worth getting on in it's present state. |

| Hi Dima, Thanks for adding the route. Lets go with Bull Run for a name. Go with what ever you think is appropriate for a grade. |
