| Felt pretty hard for a 5.8, especially a trad lead. Maybe I'm just bad at crack climbing...Climbed it again on TR, which was pretty fun doing some big laybacks. |

| I got really sweaty climbing this in August and the jams got slick real quick. Took a big whip from about midway up the route landing just inches off the deck. Exciting, challenging, and memorable(for me) climb. |
