I French freed the first pitch at about 5.8 C1 - kudos to you if you can lead that! The second pitch is very enjoyable 5.8. Cool little tower! It disappears against the background!

First pitch is killer. #6 camelot protects the crux. a few #1 camalots after and a few hand and larger pieces for the rest. the first pitch was sandy after the rain, but cleaned up well.. solid rock, great moves, awesome exposure. two solid pitches for a small tower. you can TR the route in one pitch from the anchor and two 60m ropes. what a sick valley!!!!!
