★ Ristretto V5

Sit start with slopers/crystals for left hand and a decent side pull for the right, then up to grab the good side pull higher on the right. Basically one hard move to start, then more easily up.

Pierces Creek is primarily a bouldering area however a number of naturally protected lines have been established over the years. No bolting of routes is accepted. Instead, ascentionists use natural protection on the higher problems, or where that is not available, rely on mats, spotters, and gumption.
