Really enjoyed this climb but punted waay too many times on the last move including once from the jug with an arm length of rope trying to clip anchors

I was there the day my friend KL made the FA in'87 and I tried it for the first time last summer. Took me about 20 tries but I finally redpointed it last Saturday.

Big moves to great holds with a committing crux move over the first roof! 5.12+ seems fair

Fun climb, hardest part is the pump I think.Rock quality gets better after the first couple bolts

Took way longer than it should of. Three V5 boulder problems stacked but broken up by decent rests. Was able to pull all the moves first time hopping on it but linking it was a different story.
