Description
Essentially, three boulder problems (V6,V4,V5) separated by good rests.
Follow a flake system until the holds peter out below the lip of the initial overhang. Make a long reach to small pockets and edges over the roof and fight over the lip to good finger buckets and a rest.
An easier but tricky boulder problem guards the next section. Work into some underclings and reach for a pair of small edges. Then figure out a way to gain better holds over the roof and a massive rest in a pod below the final headwall containing the 2nd hardest section of the route.
Build your feet and stretch for a poor pinch, get creative with your feet and move through some small features to surprisingly difficult to use jugs and a pumpy, blocky, final bulge.
Lots of quality here but it probably won't be everyone's favorite route- especially shorter folks. Be ready for reachy moves, small pockets, strange body positions, and intense cruxes.
