Did a rope solo of the route in between the rain showers. 1st pitch is 195 ft. The other 3 pitches average around 120-140 ft. I would say overall length is around 575 ft to the top. That last pitch is a treat.

I would give it 3 stars. The climbing is clean and fantastic.

I have been climbing "The tribe Has Spoken" and then merging into "Silent Spring". The picth is clean and lands you on a killer ledge.
