Fun Climb to lead into the upper refuse climb. Finding good stances to place pro once you are in the crux is next to impossible. Had to through a cam in and just keep on moving. The crux is awkward more then it is hard. This is a fun climb though

fun lead
Led w/ Leah seconding.
The crux sequence seemed a little long, without a good stance to place gear once you're committed. I climbed up and placed some gear before downclimbing and resting at a good stance, but was nonetheless a good ways above my gear by the time I was done.

Good fun
Nice line but hardly strenuous for the grade. Beware of backups at the belay station. We got stuck for 2+ hours. Nightmare but worth it I suppose.
