[Hide Comment] The gear is good on this, and all my cams were smaller than a #1 Camalot. A 0.5 Camalot was the biggest piece I used. Not too sustained at all. Dec 29, 2012

[Hide Comment] The first 15 feet are the best part of this route, but if you try to stay in the crack the entire way including on the upper face in the much smaller/shallower crack, it bumps up the rating +1 maybe. Good gear the whole way. Jan 21, 2014

[Hide Comment] Not slick like the well traveled routes. Too bad the first 20' couldn't go on longer. Nov 24, 2018
