Tried to boulder the route, this was as far as I got before bailing out right. This one move was the only problem, that's all it takes

[Hide Comment] Goes at like a V4/5 the whole way. Jug to the right before the chains is for Price is Right and is thus off. Don't chicken out last minute, use the crimps to gain the finish hold. You'll see. Oct 12, 2023
