Concentrated Easier Trad Routes?

Post by b_kosina »

Hello! My friends & I started doing trad late last summer, and would like to "ease" back into it with easier trad routes (i.e. 5.4 to 5.6 - with the focus on practicing technique). Can anyone recommend some good places with a higher concentration of easier trad climbs? We checked out Pistol Ridge last summer and enjoyed that. Thanks! Becky.

Moonshiner's Wall has two 5.4s and one 5.5 all right next to each other and with just about the shortest approach in the Red
