Bear Crossing

Start directly in front of the large oak tree, about 15 ft Left of "Bear" and 10-12 ft Right of "Golden Slippers".

The current guidebook designates this a "trad" climb...perhaps the bolts are too far apart to qualify as "sport". The book also lists it as "5.8". I thought a bit harder and posted it as such. We'll let "consensus" determine the grade.

Climb up the bolted line (holds brushed 2015), passing the place where a flake broke off (before or after the grade of 5.8, per guidebook, was established?) cross over "Bear" and finish in the "groove".

2018 update - currently the abundance of oak sap from the huge tree has given the lichen plenty of food and the climb is in need of another brushing, although the holds are cleaner than the surrounding rock.
