[Hide Comment] A little height dependent at the crux but certainly doable. Sep 1, 2018

[Hide Comment] Agreed. Good yet sparse holds through the middle that seem to disappear once you get to the crux. A max stretch for me (5’8”) to a slopy right hand got me through the crux. I can see it being a lot harder if you’re shorter than me Aug 12, 2020

[Hide Comment] Cool middle section and fun crux at the bulge. Choss fest, though. My partner ripped off a softball sized hold and took a big whip that resulted in a sprained wrist and ankle. Climb the non-classics at your own risk. No one wants to get hurt on their warm up. Feb 7, 2023

[Hide Comment] First route here that I found out it didn't have perms at the top, luckily I had brought extra draws for the top! May 20, 2023
