4 out of 5 stars easy runout

the crux ner the bottom is well bolted, the rest hs enough bolts to feel secure. the 2 bolt anchor in the big hueco looks pretty new.

Free solo. I did this on a very windy winter day as a rather new climber. The 4th class traverse to the route scared the bejesus out of me. The 5th class seemed more secure in the wind.
