Niagra on the Bow
With Shaun P. Uneventful climb really. Much nicer (more sustained, less pebble fall) than Cory's Groove. Of course a hump to get to the base, but worth a good day out. The 2nd and 4th pithes are the most fun to lead. Perhaps the crux move is on that last pitch, a small lay back on some frail rock to make it up the first corner. Way too many bolts based on the natural pro available in my opinion. Raps nicely with double 60m ropes.
