I've climbed this route twice and found it hard for the grade. The start of pitch 2 is off a detached pillar with no pro for an ankle busting hands only sloping mantle. Above, a dead vertical wall leads to a sling belay off of natural pro. The mantle seemed like hard 9 or 10a. Was I off route or just out of shape?
