Description
There are many challenging cruxes on this one! The opening crux sequence is very sequential, and the rock a little chossy. It is highly advised for the belayer to belay right at the start to minimize groundfall potential clipping the 2nd bolt. After this, it is easy climbing up to the final headwall. The headwall has many tricky and balancy moves, so it makes for a real challenge! It steepens even more just below the top, but thankfully, once you stretch for them, you get some good holds.
