First pitch is a bit of an old school thrutch for a grade 7, crux is quite committing for the grade. Watch for rope drag on the 2nd pitch.

1st and 3rd pitches are both great. The shubbery on the 1st pitch really doesn't affect the climbing. Easy to combine the 2nd and 3rd pitches. I lead the 4th pitch and had a scare when my last 2 pieces popped with the drag as I topped out.
