The crux is early on, a mantle. Easy access to the top and a DRB allows you to set up as a top rope.

PA: Luen Warneke & Jodie Rummer, 12 Ag 2018

Open project. Follow the crack up to the hole and then out left.

This climb has a bit of everything: laybacks, slopers, and crimps. There's a perfect resting area before the last crux, a mantle to get up to the DRB. Can easily set up as a top rope climb.

PA: Luen Warneke & Jodie Rummer, 12 Ag 2018

Open project. It's a hard start without the tree. Decent crimps in the middle to the razor sharp crux crimps at the top. Top out with slopers then a mantle to DRB. Can easily set up a top rope.
