2024-07-02burly trad-like route, had to try a few different options before figuring out what worked for me.

2024-06-13Awkward start and a bit convoluted. Too close to the adjacent 11 for both to be in use simultaneously. Bring a yellow TCU to protect the fall above the 2nd bolt (sneak it in the crack behind the sloping sidepull to save all your hands) or risk nailing your belayer or a ground fall when clipping third bolt. Bolting is NOT friendly for short climbers. Have draws prehung as can't reach higher bolt from undercling or from jug above. Glad to put this one to rest. -
2024-06-132nd go. Could not find a way to hang the next to last draw that wasn't super sketchy, so climbed past it but then was too high to get a draw on it. Moral of the story, short folks consider having someone else hang the draws, it's a bit tricky if you're 5'2" or I just totally missed the clipping position.

2022-08-19Misread the topo and thought it was an 11a warm up. Was not ready to try hard and fell at the low crux. Lowered, got back on, tried hard, and sent. I would have probably enjoyed the climb more had I known it was 11+. Definitely high end 11+ IMO.
