| good route! the first two clips are a bit spaced with awkward climbing, though a hand sized piece might be useful for the timid getting to the 2nd bolt. the second half makes up for it with awesome pumpy sequences through the headwall. the last move is strenuous if youre pumped and almost took my onsight away. |
