| Climbing goes 5.6 until the roof. Roof move seemed easier than 5.9 to me, perhaps 5.8. Protect roof move with micro cam. |

| I followed on this and decided to go directly thru and over the center of the roof. That's a fun move and probably about 5.9. It's unfortunate that the first bolt is so far to the left as it means that leading it this way requires a slightly thin left traverse and precarious leaning over to clip the bolt. Very fun route. |
