Route Info
A great beginner route to practice a wide variety of skills.
Go to the far left of the upper level, and start just to the right of the tree. Climb up the first few easy holds then cross back left onto an thin sloping triangle. This is a good spot to practice hidden holds as there are good feet holds all the way up to the first shelf with the foliage. Rest here a bit then traverse back right.
This traverse can be tricky if your movements aren't coordinated. You can do feet in the crack and hands smearing above, or all 4 limbs in the crack. Hands in the crack with feet smearing below is not recommended. When you finish the traverse, climb up back across to the left until you see a narrow crack in the vines.
Move into this crack and up up until you gain a sloping ledge. Follow this up to a thin, final ledge to rest before crux. The final crux has no good holds beyond that final shelf. It will take some practice to find a smearing approach to top out. Good luck!
Very much doable buffless, but the final smear can be a little tough with no buffs.
