Beginner Lead: Yes
Conclusion WTF? What the FUN!
The Gallery is a fun sport wall where you can basically go from left to right down the wall going from easy to more difficult.
There's not a whole lot to say about this climb except that it's a quintessential Red Rock sport juggy petina fun fest. It's rated as a 7+ but other than some thin feet at the bottom that you get past quite fast, it's does not merit a plus.
There are mussy hooks at the top, but if you plan to top rope it, please use an anchor as it looks like the mussies are getting some wear and may get sharp with continued use for top roping. Lowering through mussies is generally acceptable (with chains or rap rings, rappelling after cleaning is typically encouraged.)
That Good Dude climb was the second-to-last sport climb we have to complete on the tour! The last one, Ms. Adventure, was also done on this day and is in a separate entry because it's located in a different area - Sandstone Quarry.)
