One or two 5.5 moves. Most of it is easier than that.

Re: Sweet looking climb!

Like Dave said, a lot of 4th and easy fifth (notice hiking boots), with crux of exposed 5.5 for about 10 ft at the top of a "leg chimney" a little ways above my position in the pic. Fortunately there's an old pin to which the climber can clip here for some (deceptive?) confidence. Fun climbing on great rock!
