It probably felt like a 5.5 up to there because you were climbing on the crap rock to the right of the bolts, instead of following the solid holds to the left. Or you are a colossal sandbagger. That's my line "Wintermute", lad, and it's really only 5.8+ anyways, but it's always fun to hear folks offroute dis on our lines at Franklin.

no offense but it cant be a great route if you need directions on how to climb it...

With all due respect.. I wasn't dissing the route by any means nor do I believe it was a bad route. I thought that some of Franklin felt a little soft anyways, but I climb in Rumney,NH.

I'll be in Franklin this summer hopefully i'll see you there. Maybe we can discuss where i should be climbing on the routes.

Nice shot, regardless of the grade. Looks like fun and thats why we do it, right?
