BETA PHOTO: West Face of P.A.'s Mother 1 Pissant 5.10b 2...
Description
You might feel like crying home to momma if you go into this route thinking that it will be a 5.8 cruiser. The first bolt clips easily and then you hit the crux. Fun moves with small crimpers over almost vertical rock make this route a great place to hone your balance technique.
Location
Located on the far right of PA's Mother.
Protection
Five bolts to a two chain anchor.
The FA authorized that the route be bolted due to the difficultly of protecting the route with gear.

Definitely a balancy, technical climb (hmmm... it's weird saying that about a 5.8). There's nothing too terribly difficult on the climb, but you need to hunt around for the holds.
Seemed a bit easier this time around. Enjoyable climbing. Anyone led it on gear recently? It's 5.8 R and trad in the Ruckman guide. Seems like it'd be fun.
