•••	Glory Road	Onsight	5.7	Trad	G	4 Pitches

This was the second year in a row that I found myself on Barks Wall in late spring. We started the morning playing around on a hard route next door, but didn’t get far. We then climbed Glory Road, so we could rap in on the other route and dial in the beta some. Glory Road was a pretty cool route and a solid moderate by Supes Standards. However, I would not put it above, "Stroke it Gently" the other route I did on Barks Wall. I led the first pitch, Sean took second and Pernell led the third. The fourth pitch is a scramble.

I think there must have been a line to get inside of the Wave Cave based on the amount of cars that were there.
