[Hide Comment] I'm not sure exactly if I was on the right thing, but I started with some small underclings and slopey feet them moved a little left and up some small pockets, to a ledge with two small crimps, to a much better ledge, to easy climbing. I did not use the two large pockets to the right of where I started (I think these are on the route pretzel but not on this but I'm really not sure). Relative to other grades here I think you could call this 10c or 10d, at least the way I did it. Feb 16, 2020

[Hide Comment] The direct line is definitely a sandbag at 10b, but not 12+. I found this easier than Despondency Direct and any 5.12 I have ever been on. Jul 12, 2022
