[Hide Comment] We had a jug come off on us after the opening crux. Didn't seem like the only hold on the face that is waiting to come off eventually. Nov 21, 2021

[Hide Comment] Climbed this on 12/30/21. When I stepped on the ledge rest above the 3rd bolt, I felt it wiggle. That made me look down and realize that the whole thing is very detached from the wall behind it. Luckily when my 6'0" partner climbed it, it didn't move, but please be careful. Jan 2, 2022
