Description
A two-pitch climb which can be climbed in one long, 130-foot pitch.
Pitch 1 (5.8) is a mostly juggy moderate pitch with a delicate crux leading up to the first set of anchors.
Pitch 2 (5.10b) is mostly bolt protected, but a few finger-sized pieces are useful for protecting the crux. The moves throughout are mentally stimulating and involve the occasional mantel.
The Van Leuven guidebook represents that both pitches can be top-roped (just) with a single 70m rope. Or you can clean and lower to the first anchor and then lower again.
