Aaron Reite | We skipped the real first two pitches of this, to get past a huge mass of crowds. The rest of the climb was fun. |

Shanjean Lee | This was an excellent three-pitch route. The first pitch took a splitter 5.8 hand crack to a nice stance. The second pitch, which Shanjean led, went straight up the inside corner… more |

5.8 *** | Trad | 4 pitches We climbed 1. I led 1. |
