Description

This is a fun route with a crux at the bottom with a marginal piece of gear to protect you. Definitely a good idea to have a pad if you don't feel comfortable at the grade.

Location

Starts on the castle hold and move straight up over a small bulge. Shorties have a really cool alternate sequence that works left on a series of underclings. Climb to the highest point.
