[Hide Comment] this route was a very pleasant surprise. as a warning to leaders, though, this probably isn't a 3-star route ground-up. it's the movement of the climb that's really fun, but the gear's sketchy. Feb 1, 2010

[Hide Comment] i climbed this again today and i changed my mind about the PG13 rating. it seems safe to me, you just have to look closely for the good gear. Dec 9, 2012
