Description 

The left climb of the 2 west-facing routes on the Bubble.A fairly straight-forward face climb with lots of pockets for holds. It seems like every time you think to yourself, 'that next one better be good!', it is!

Both this climb and West Face felt like 5.10c onsight lead. This was the better of the two routes.

I'm going to have to disagree with the above. It feels like at least 10D to me. West Facing probably is more accurately 10C though.
