[Hide Comment] Yes and no Mr. Brown. This route was semi bolted by the guys that put up all the original routes back in the day. For some some reasons mostly unknown the bolts were pulled and the holes well covered (if you look closely you can find a couple). This route follows a slightly different line and avoids the problems it originally had (one of which was water runoff in the black streak). Jun 12, 2011

[Hide Comment] This is a fun climb with a really cool exposed move around the arete at the top. The crux is low and there are a couple of hard to find holds but it is totally worth doing. May 26, 2017

[Hide Comment] Good line. The Toss Gross guidebook puts this at 12c... Perhaps not, but it is certainly harder than Happiness is Coming (11d) and Second Coming (12a). Oct 27, 2019

[Hide Comment] This route can be done completely independent from Second Coming at around 12a. It is easy to get sucked left into some chalked jugs about midway up, but with a little discipline and finding the usable unchalked holds, it goes and has nice movement, and is probably actually easier than going out left.
