| Direct crack climbing leading to a liebacking move or two is how this route is often done. Very clean |

| Rick Piggott did the first ascent of this around 1976. It was originally rated 5.10c as I recall. |

| Interesting that I am forced to give this a V grade. I would call climbing this ropeless more of a solo than a boulder problem. If there is really a difference I guess not but this is a very bold boulder problem. |

| Fun, but over-rated. And that picture make it look three times longer than it is. 2.5 out of 4. |

| Ryan doesn't know what he's talking about. Awesome line that really tests you in a lot of pure jamming sizes, without constrictions. |

| Camhead didn't send until we put tic marks (1 for thumbs down, 2 for thumbs up jams, differentiating between right and left hands) all the way up the 10 foot climb. |
