[Hide Comment] IDK when this happened, but the starting hold is completely gone, in pieces at the base of the boulder. Lost some quality for sure. Jul 6, 2019

[Hide Comment] As Owen said, this route fell off. Not possible now, or if it is possible it is *much* harder. Should probably be removed or updated. Apr 25, 2023
