[Hide Comment] This is a good route with two interesting pitches. Pitch 1 has a balancey traverse, while pitch 2 is the money, with some exciting moves up a fist and off-width crack. The second pitch is lacking in face features for pro, so have a couple of large cams (#4 or higher) with you to place in the crack or prepare to run it out a bit. Jul 21, 2018
