CONDITION REPORT | This route is not 5.11c/d. The grade should reflect mandatory mono finger pockets in a bulge section with poor feet.
I didn't see a drilled pocket, but I don't the route's history. |

| Actually a pretty nice route with an interesting boulder-problem crux, including a dynamic move and a mono. Unfortunately, there is a drilled solution pocket right smack dab in the middle of the crux. In addition to being obviously manufactured, it is also completely unnecessary. I found an 11+ sequence that didn't touch the pocket.... |

| Not sure if something broke in the crux area since this first went up, but it feels pretty hard for 11d. This route would probably get 2 stars if the bolt at the crux was in a better location. In its current location, when you pitch off the crux move, you can end up clipping the ramp below and then swinging to the left. Kind of unpleasant. |
