Always a fun route when in the area.

Great pump with continuous moves. I counted 3 10a moves along the route. As for gear I found that small to #1 Camalots were all I needed and there is a 2 bolt rap anchor at the top! The most physical move was finding that my harness was back at Trashcan rock so I ran there and back (1 mile round trip up and down the sand dunes in approximately 11 minutes). It made the 43 deg. day no so cold for a while!!

Very good and demanding route; it keeps one's attention all the way. I'm going to be contrary and rate it 10B.

Definitely a great route. Good gear, fun cruxes, and a final challenge at the end. Largest piece needed is a #2 Camalot - and that is only used at the very end.

This is one of the better .10a Josh climbs I've been on. Definitely better than right baskerville.

If you climb straight up the crack on the upper third of the crack it might be .10b, but that's a little contrived as a step right then back in on good holds is the obvious (and .10a) sequence...
