A fine traverse from a sit start on the south arete moving low across the face topping out on Rocky Top. Great variety in the moves and holds (from pebbly and edgy crimps to a deep pocket). The crux comes within the first 15 feet passing the bulge. Relatively restful moves across the pod in the center of the face lead to interesting reaches and cross throughs with small feet. Exit via the balancy moves of Rocky Top.
First, there are plenty of three star problems at Carter and Srg. Woody's is one of them. Second, if all you want to do is bag of the problems, go do it somewhere else.
Sometime this spring, a hold broke on this route making it harder. The hold was a sidepull right before the topout on Rocky Top. I am not sure if it has changed the grade, but the moves getting to Rocky Top are much harder and I believe they are now the crux. They will be very hard if you are short.
