[Hide Comment] I jumped on this route for the first time yesterday and ended up falling in love with it. I can't wait to redpoint it so that I can work on it's extension that makes the route a lot taller.

The feet are very tricky on this one. The hands are a lot of crimps and side pulls. A taller person definitely will have an advantage on this one. Mar 29, 2012
