Amy comes up the horrendous...

Amy comes up the horrendous Entrance Crack (5.4X). The sling near the tree is the first pro I could place for about 80'. Yikes! This pitch made me profoundly unhappy. May 2001

I love that tree.

I remember talking to a friend about leading that pitch to the tree ledge. He would'nt lead it and he climbed 5.11 . I love that tree.

Entrance Crack.

You should be able to get at least one piece in the crack, if I remember right! Or do the next route over, climbers
left "Father Knows Best" 5.9. FA Paul Thor Pelot, Rick Poedtke 03/28/91. You can get a small TCU in the crack then run out the two bolts to the top! Crux after the second bolt!
