Tree Crack 

This climb is a sandbag at 5.5. The first pitch is steep hands, fist, and offwidth, and is closer to 5.7 in difficulty. Doubles on the #1, #2, and #3 Camalots are handy for running the pitch past the tree and up to the roof. The belay under the roof is on a sloping ledge with limited but adequate choices for anchors. The second pitch traverse protects with medium to large cams stuffed in the horizontal crack below the roof, and is exciting 5.5 for both the leader and follower.

Did this route in one pitch no problem with a 60 meter rope. Just used some long runners where we turned the corner to traverse right. It did seem harder than 5.5 with the crux just below the tree.

I'd agree that it felt harder than 5.5. Except for the first section of the traverse, where the horizontal crack is a little flared, this climb eats up the medium and big pro.

Definitely a bit stiff for 5.5 up to the tree, after that things mellow quite a bit but it protects well. As mentioned above, the belay is not the most comfortable and doing it in one pitch with a 60 m rope is probably the better option.

On the traverse bit, especially if you're doing it in the snow, keep some bigger pieces for after the tree (bigger than #1 Camalot). If you don't know where it ends, the "descent gully is a bit snowy, you can angle up & R for a bit mo' climbin' after the traverse to a notch.
