[Hide Comment] This was the last route I sent at the alcove. The crux on this route gave me more trouble than almost any other route... (other than the height dependant crux on evil C.) Oct 3, 2015

[Hide Comment] Thought this route was quite a bit harder than Evil D. Although its just a few bouldery moves up top it actually felt more true to grade than the rest of the Alcove. Nov 30, 2020
