[Hide Comment] Speaking as someone who lives in Minnesota, when the leaves fall and the bugs are gone, this crag deserves a visit for sure. Amazing views, great exposure, long pitches, solid rock, nice approach, good bolting. Really no complaints. Big respect to those who developed the cliff. Thanks for the hard work! There’s also tons of potential left, as stated above. If you know what you’re doing, this is a great place to put in some new lines. Oct 19, 2024
