Description
A hardy thrutch that will make you consider if you really can climb 5.8. Fist jam and funky wide fun leads to nice jams up higher. For comparison, it feels a bit like Y-Crack and for a moment like Hades over at Pinnacle Peak.
There currently is no beehive on the route or signs of recent activity but in the old guidebook it mentions a hive somewhere on route.
