| Not sure if this has been done before. If so, due credit should be given. Not sure on the grade. If anyone has tried/done it before I'd like to know what they think. |

| A very, very cool route, but it's been climbed before, just like 99% of the other "new" routes on the boulder. I'm suprised it's taken so long to post it as it is one of the boulder's best lines by far. I agree with the rating. There is also a low traverse that is much harder. |

| Cool, thanks for letting me know. I never thought about the low traverse, I see the line though, definitely looks much harder. I was eyeing up the left side blunt arete of the west face. Sit Start on side pulls of arete and going straight up looks really hard, haven't tried it though. |
