P1 of EZ Street. You can see all three bolts. Ka...


Description 

Three pitches with the second being the crux. This route was bolted in 1994 by Mark Van Horn. P1 - goes at 5.4 with 3 bolts to a 2 bolt belay. P2 goes over the little headwall which is protected by bolts and is about 5.6. P3 heads to the top and eases off again.

P1 is a great beginner lead up very featured slab. The three bolts are where you need them to make it feel not run out. A 60m rope will get you down from the belay anchor with lots to spare. I think this first pitch is a better first lead than Counter Strike.


Location 

To the right of Happy Trails. It starts on a ledge with a tree.


Protection 

Draws and a light rack if you want one.

A buddy and I tried this route today. It was his first lead, the first pitch was great...but was the second really a 5.6 going over that headwall??? I made it over after he tried way to the right of the second bolt, but was this where the route is supposed to go? If so the swing for the second is pretty sketchy after cleaning his last bolt. Any info would be great! Climb on!
