The crux is not exposed, so the name is a misnomer. Pitch 1 (5.9+) has a mix of liebacking and jamming, with some loose rock. Pitch 2 (5.10A) has some strenuous and awkward jamming in the back of a large dihedral.
There is a 3rd pitch to this route that wanders on the face just right of Angel's Fright. The gear and bolt on this pitch suck, and it definitely put some fright into me anyway.

Sounds like you did the last pitch of Frightful Fright, a seldom done and well named route.
There are rap rings on slings on a small tree at the top of P2, so you can rap with an approx 56m rope to the rap anchor at the top of P1.

Super fun first pitch (all we did). I'd say 9+ is fair, definitely not 10a (not even in the same league as Super Pooper!) Lots of loose blocks, but they all seems relatively secure.. though it does add a little creep factor to the climb.
