Description
A long, terrific route with tons of variety but all of the difficulty and much of the quality comes down to the steep panel down low. Two bolts of techy vert off the ground sets you up below the gorgeous and steep blue panel of rock. Begin by heading left the to jug flake then launch into the perfect power endurance using crimps, pockets and two very nice pinches. Felt like a long, sustained V6 to me. Once you've cleared the overhang, you're rewarded with a bit of easier climbing only to arrive at the upper roof. The roof felt around 5.12- to me but may be harder the shorter you are. 25ft of harder-than-you'd-like slab climbing will see you to the chains.
