| Might be the best climb on the wall. Classic. Also I think you can start on this one and traverse right into the next line over for an interesting variation. |

| In my opinion, this problem compares to the standard V3 (+) on the Redwall at Flagstaff. First two moves are SWEET. |

| Isn't most of Flagstaff considered SANDBAGGED? |

| Haha definitely, I'm pretty sure the "+" was added to the grade by people who felt the same way. |

| Does this start on crimps or a jug? I think the description may be a little off. I started on a nice incut jug, made one short move to a lh jug, then a big lockoff to a RH edge before falling into the sidepull (which isn't as bad as the description suggests) and reaching to the finish jug for 2nd mate.... The line I did couldn't have been harder than a soft V4. |

I did the climb the exact same way as George, seemed the most natural. Had no beta, just saw the wall, was my first time in the area.
Agree on the rating, definitely not harder than V4. |
