Its unfortunate that people don't get on mixed lines. This rout was a little dirty due to lack of traffic, but the movement was good and the holds were solid. I would recommend it to anyone

Route details are copyright Ray Ellington, John Bronaugh, and other Red River Gorge climbers. Climbing is an inherently dangerous sport. The information in this guidebook is subject to error and should supplement never replace common sense and caution, competent guidance and instruction, and actually being outside. One should be especially cautious on matters of route length, descent type, and number of bolts (especially since such things do change occasionally).
