  After much too long trying this route, I still can’t decide whether the send was thanks to the tiniest beta change ever, a fuzzy peach or just plain dumb luck. Or I could have actually gotten better, but that seems much less likely.

  Amazingly sustained and varied.

  Classic! Technical, powerful, and sustained. First time I've done 8 bolts of hard climbing at Horne without a single kneebar. Felt a solid grade harder than any other 13a's at Horne - the move to the broken hold was one of the hardest single moves for me. So stoked for a sunny sendy day in October!

  The thin flake mentioned by Alex in April '19 (around bolt 5) had indeed broken by August '19. That part now feels like a tense vertical stemming/gaston boulder problem. I'm not sure how much easier the original holds made it, but the redpoint crux or cruxes are surely higher where things steepen. Excellent climb!

  Happy to send after many days of work. A bit of a brawl on the redpoint. Almost fell on the 5.10 climbing near the old anchor. Comes down to pure endurance and the ability to recover well on really good rests. Climbs somewhat like Pushers in that respect, but is a good notch harder, I would say. Watch that undercling flake in the vertical section as it will probably blow off one of these days.

  Last climb of the Horne trip. Early morning with Joe, neither of us were confident in the OS so we put the 2nd go tactics to work. It payed off with just enough time to get him to The Ferry in time! This climb has it all, ultra-classic!

  Long and sustained (thought it was REALLY sustained until i was told about the kneebar before the last crux). Awesome route, thanks Rene!

  Nice and sustained. I was once told "no move is harder than 5.12, but every move is 5.12" and that seems about right.

  The best thing I have ever climbed. Relentlessly hard and relentlessly awesome for 30 m.

  Fantastic climb! Some cruxy moves off the ground followed by sustained tough climbing to the top.

  One of the best routes I've ever climbed. Seriously! Technical feet and burly pulling on a sustained endurance route. Soo good! Thanks to Yannick for the fixed draws and Rich for the awesome belays. And to the cute bear who said hi on the hike up, the random flying rock that missed killing us, the family of beautiful hummingbirds at the cliff and Daisy for starting off the sending howl.

  Excellent face climbing on cool rock with really interesting features. Super sustained. In my opinion, hard 13a, about the same difficulty as Devil's Note. 2nd go.
