    Superb route. My redpoint ascent was less flowy than I hoped due to drinking a bottle of local sugary gassy caffeinated beverage Ale-8-One just prior (not recommended)

    Sick line, jugs, crimps, slopers, knee bars. From contemplating biting the crux draw in the spring to sending in the fall

    Checked my grip 3 times while punting at the top until I sent on the 4th go. Pumpy even with the belly rest. Great mix of holds on this route, quite enjoyable!
