The Sinister 

Ahmmm, please stop the brutal inaccuracy.

If you haven't climbed the route yourself, then don't post it.

I did climb it. Feel free to add your opinion, as Mountain Project is a consensus website.

My sincere apologies Aimee.
I have enjoyed your contributions to the site. Thanks.

I posted that comment because there are several things in your description that make it seem like you have not climbed the route.

Nope, I tried it and it kicked my butt, so I did estimate the grade, but it certainly isn't 11d! Thanks for the apologies.

I did the route. 11d is laughable. It's way harder. I wish there was one more bolt up top. It's not hard, but very entertaining.

Who did the F.A.???

I've never heard this route called 11d. It has a very hard start (v5/6-ish), with precarious feet and sidepulls. After the crux, it eases quite a bit, but the bolts are quite far apart. Blowing any clip after the crux would be a bad thing.

I'm not sure about the FA, but I do know that Dean Potter soloed it years ago, and that the mags made a pretty big deal about it.

Tom Gilje did the FA. I'm thinking it's 4 bolts and 12b.

way less "PG 13" than many of the other sport bolted routes at mill creek (think technochrist). if you can send the crux, then the top 5.10 runouts should be way chill. if you can't send it, you should be on something easier! :)

Tom and ED established this route and did in fact call it 11d.
The ground used to be a bit higher (as maybe were the ones who rated it such ;-) at the start. Sure made 11d feel a lot easier everywhere else.
Consensus: v5 to 11- to 5.10, so interpret as you will from that.
Yes, 4 bolts. 1st one is standard to stick-clip.
