45-Degree Downclimb (5.0)

The 50-foot route from the bottom. It is called 5.0 but is pretty easy to climb either up or down, and it is the only way to access the base of the cliffs without rappelling or boating to it. There is some exposure, especially near the top, and the hardest spot is about two thirds of the way down.
