Description
This is a very high quality route in terms of rock quality and movement, and it's a nice long pitch. The "5.7+" rating is from the first ascentionist. I would call this climb solid 5.8. Once this route cleans up, it will rival quality mixed routes up and down the Front Range.
Climb the starting slab past two bolts, then pull the easy roof on the left. Continue up a thin crack to a rest, make one tenuous move and clip the next bolt as you smear left towards another quality crack. More crack and face moves above, then clip a last bolt on your way to the two bolt anchor.
We used a 70m rope and a single rap to get off this climb, but a 70m will not get you all the way back to the start.
This is a great pitch that's full value for the grade.
Location
This is on the left side of the crag. It is the longest visible line. Look for two bolts directly above two toothy flakes jutting upwards.
Protection
A standard rack with emphasis on smaller stuff.
