Description

Somewhat ugly flake/crack system that climbs better than the choss at the bottom would suggest. The route may need some additional cleaning, wearing a helmet is advised as a large hold recently came off the route.

The pro is intermittent and the crack is shallow, making it a poor lead for someone breaking into the grade. Feels harder than Noggin and more sustained.

I enjoyed the climb due to rock-bottom expectations but it is definitely not a great route, at least until it cleans up a bit.
