Moderate climb with interesting moves. The moves to climb the corner crazy fun. One of the better lines on the wall IMO. Jan 11, 2012

Looks like a pile but it's surprisingly good. Feb 4, 2012

Have to agree with Christian. Steep jugs, cool shallow corner then lower angle arete climbing. Feb 4, 2012

A hard finish can be had by moving left out of the shallow corner to the top of the pillar to the left and finishing on the the new finish to Hairy Interlude. This was jokingly referred to as Hair Extension 5.11c/d. Feb 13, 2012

Bottom 2/3rd is super fun ***'s. top 1/3rd still good but brings overall down to 2 stars. Great climb. Dec 24, 2012

What a unique and enjoyable climb! Personally I thought the highlight was the strangeness - the pod halfway up is very unique, and if you employ some chimney/off-width/groveling technique, the upper section is also pretty cool. Do this and Speed Racer and you'll be in a great mood. Jan 10, 2017

Didn't feel a hell of a lot like a corner to me, but it sure was a hell of a lot of fun. Highly recommend! Nov 30, 2023
