[Hide Comment] Climbed this route after a big hold broke. Well protected and fun movements. Probably 11d/12a Dec 1, 2017

[Hide Comment] Reed Ames' pdf guide says Palm Nailer is the middle route, not the left route of these 3. (??) (An error?) Maybe somebody with the guidebook can share if it agrees that the left side route is Palm Nailer? (The broken hold certainly seems to be on the left side route.) Nov 11, 2018
