Casey checking out the skid mark


Description 

This route is on the far right-hand side of the Wake Up Wall, starting up the small canyon, and follows a black streak. A thin, slabby start makes way to a series of interesting pinches, followed by a steeper and juggier finish. A varied and fun moderate.

It's 5.9. But lots of fun, anyway, so call it 5.13 and enjoy it even more, Mikey. :) Big K

Now K, just cause you're so strong you forgot what 5.10 feels like, don't sandbag everyone else!! =)
I gave it the rating here that Jerry gave it in the new book.

What up Mike! I'm fat and don't climb 13's... Felt like a very easy 10/ 9+ especially compared to the difficulty of the rest of the cliff, either way, it's a great warm up...

I agree with O'Brien. Travis found a gem of a route - really cool holds and movement. 5.9 is right on. A great route.

The best moderate in the Sandstone Quarry! The pockets are just killer and are made to be climbed on. Great find!
