[Hide Comment] Worth stepping around the corner from railroad, or a great first stop if you're coming in from the upper trail. Cool route!
As of 5/7/16 an anchor update would be good for the future of this route. May 8, 2016

[Hide Comment] I don't know, totally my own opinion but I hated this route. I don't see how this is a 10c. After 1st bolt I ended up stick clipping the 2nd and the chains. If you blow a clip or punt on the traverse the fall will not be fun at all. I usually don't like to leave routes unfinished but this is going to be one of them. May 12, 2020
