    This has cleaned up to be a very good route. Fun face climbing on good, featured rock. If you are looking for an easier 10a route up there I would recommend this. Great little belay spot right next to that big pine tree as an added bonus; take some beers, kick back and enjoy the Alta life.

    Climbed twice today. Solid, fun climb. Can even belay in the shade from the tree until sun moves west.

    Best moderate climb at Hellgate! Awesome aesthetic line up an arete/pillar... made all the better for it being consistent and offers great views. Gave it 4 stars for the area.

    Awesome place to take someone to get their first 9+/10a lead.

    I was climbing this the other day and a guy told me to do the 2-bolt extension. So I was like, " Cool, Tyler must have added a few extra feet of climbing." But then I saw the bolts right next to the perfect handcrack and was pretty sure he wouldn't do that. I think the guy said his name was Greg and had the impression it was 'The Greg' who did all the Hellgate stuff and was kind of psyched to meet him. But my kids were kind of freaked out by all the cussing so we laid low. And then I thought, "Nah, that can't be that Greg because he got super upset when Sanderson extended one of his lines. He'd never do something like that because he'd know that would be uncool to Tyler. Maybe he worked it out with him and I need to STFU? Probably.

    Good route, the first pitch is soft even for the grades at the Hellgate. I think if the extension is added it brings the grade a little closer to .10a. Quality rock, fun jams at the top, a must do if you are at the wall regardless of who thinks what about the grade.
