there's nothing at all on this site about this route. anyone have some beta? not just on the offwidth pitch but for the whole route? i know the wide section is near the top of the last pitch. how long is it? how much big gear should i bring?

Standard Tower rack with extra #2 thru #4 C4's. C5 might be helpful. It's been a couple decades since I've done it, but I do remember thinking it was awful. If it's big cracks you're looking for, check out Gooseberry Jam or Manifest Destiny

I can't remember any of the route itself but I do remember all the Poison Ivy plants draping the first 2 pitches back in the 80's sometime when a friendand I ventured up on this route.....
