Swiss Cheese 5.6

Freesolo

Fun for beginners. Top rope bolts accessible by hiking up around the rock

Graded 5.4 on Mountain Project. Felt like a 5.9 or 5.10a in the gym. Mostly simple slab moves with a slightly awkward crux around two thirds of the way. Difficulty wasn't very balanced. My first time climbing outdoors. I wasn't crazy about the route but it was interesting to climb in a different setting, and I liked that the route was a bit longer than usual. I think I've been spoiled by the relative quality of gym routesetting though
