[Hide Comment] Pretty confusing at the roof. I didn't know if it goes right or left. Bolt 3 to 4 was a bit runout, and if you blow the clip, you could take a groundfall (I fell coming over the roof and met my belayer below the first draw). It's a new route, so that is to be expected, but I knocked off a good-size rock. Wear a helmet! May 24, 2020

[Hide Comment] BETA WARNING:

The route goes very directly through the roof. There's a sinker left hand undercling that makes for a really fun boulder problem. Some people cheat by going way out right, which to me seems pretty clearly off-route, but whatever.

I know the gap between the 3rd and fourth bolt looks intimidating, but as soon as you pull the roof, you find huge jugs and an easy clip. I think you'd have to have a really terrible belay to hit the ground, and you're not likely to fall above the roof. May 24, 2020

[Hide Comment] Blatantly contrived. Everyone just seems to go right within a foot from the 10c then go up and feel accomplished, having done the 10c. Only the pure seek the direct. Aug 29, 2022
