[Hide Comment] A tricky start leads to easier moves. On TR I went straight up the face at the end of the crack on lead it would be wise to finish left around the corner due to dubious holds and pro on the face. Jul 9, 2010

[Hide Comment] Pretty sure Jack Kein and myself did this in circa 1982. Also of note is what we were going to name it was so politically incorrect I won't bother repeating it here! Nov 30, 2015
