[Hide Comment] This is an incredible line that would see loads of traffic if not for the 1-1.5 hour uphill hike. We apparently had the second ascent which was 17 years after the FA. Our gear included doubles of #2-6 Camalots and I was glad to have it. Warning - tread carefully around the Flake of Death about a third of the way up on the right side of the crack. It’s easy to spot from the ground - assuming it hasn’t already fallen off! Oct 9, 2023
