| This a great little DL lead for the grade. Fairly hard and the pro is all good except maybe the first 10 feet. Great crux with good small wires to protect. I like the varied nature of the climbing on this route all packed into 50 feet. |

| Climbed better than it looked. On OS I took a nice whipper on a #00 C3, smallest piece of pro I've ever fell on. Protected well except for the dirty first 10 feet, I think skip that and start on the slot in the horizontal one ledge up.
Tricky movement in the crux! |

| Ha!
Lead this this Saturday past in 90 temps and pretty high humidity and the crux, not so oddly, became not slim'n out of the upper hand jams. A hand towel attached near the chalk bag a great idea! |
