Description Suggest change

Start standing left of savage verse 10ft-ish.  I started direct, avoiding the dirty and more friable stone to the right.  work through slopers and edges to gain a horizontal ledge system at mid height.  For the last pull to the ledge use the fattest part of the hold at the lip.  The thinner section may snap off.  Balance off the rail to a difficult right hand sloping hold and do a big and somewhat insecure lock off to a thin horizontal crimp slot.  Without a good matching option, there's another long reach to the lip rewarded by an easy mantle.

Like with the neighbors, the upper rock on this is really good.  It would get all the stars if the start was more singular and the lower lip holds were not suspect.

Re: grade: Harder and less secure lockoff than savage verse with easier set up moves.  Could be harder than 7, but my radar is way off.  The last established 7 i did was covert direct in the red. In comparison, this was two full grades harder for me but FAs always feel harder, so...?

Rock ledge in the landing. Pad it up.
