My favorite climb in Mn. Great layback hand crack 3/4 of the way. Great views and sweet rock. Use protection for the webbing because the rock is sharp. Read guidebook.

clean
	5.11d	★★★ Mr. Lean	Unknown		Colton Van Dorpe	Fri 23rd Sep 2022
Fell at crux. Tried to climb straight up the finger crack, gets hard 2/3 of the way up. Instead, reaching left (maybe using the right hand pinch?) to the sidepulls, getting feet up, then reaching to the ledge feels easier. A "jug" is to the right of the crack which might help getting into the loose finger crack above. high left foot onto a small edge. remains tough for a few more moves, but the hand jams are there to rest. awesome hand jams to start.

	5.12a	★★ Sunny and Sheer	Unknown		Colton Van Dorpe	Sat 11th Jun 2022
Super fun movement on the bottom 1/2. Tough arete climbing on loose rock for the top 1/2. At crux left heel jug, left hand side pull around arete , right hand to 3rd pod with thumb catch, left hand upper crystal side pull, right hand to pocket. Then, stay within 1 arms length of arete, first left on crumbly cracks, with a section of easier climbing on the right side before finishing on the left side in the good finger sized crack.
