Access Issue: PRIVATELY OWNED PROPERTY
Details
This cliff line is on private property. If there are "NO TRESPASSING" signs up, and you choose to climb there, that's a personal choice. Attempts have been made to contact the landowner by the local climbing organization, but thus far, there has been no progress.
Description
The route starts out with a high first bolt on what appears to be good looking rock. However I found the rock to be very flakey, and the first bolt is pretty sketch with bad fall potential. Getting past the bolt is the crux which ends on a good ledge 15 feet below the anchor. The flake out left could be supplemented with 2" gear to take the sting out of the runnout to the anchor, but it's limestone so it probably won't help if you were to pitch. In my opinion this route is not recommended since there is a substainial amount of loose rock just left of the boltline that I wasn't able to avoid standing on to get to the upper ledge.
