I haven't actually red pointed this route. After trying and failing to last year, (I ripped two pieces and took a digger into the starting column) I fixed four pieces through the crux and pre-clipped the first (green ballnut). Done this way, I feel like it's reasonable to call this route PG13. Trying to redpoint with the small, fiddly gear through the hardest climbing would fully merit an R and possibly add a letter grade.

Regardless of style, bring the full compliment of tiny gear (RPs and ball nuts with the green ballnut being especially crucial) in addition to the usual 3-4 fingers and tips sizes required for Trout Creek finger cracks.
