The 9R was exciting and fun. Great edges and pretty secure if you like 9 slab. Crux was short and sweet.

Excellent!
I've done this route clean, not so clean, and down right ugly. It was the site of my first gear fall. I love it. The direct start is the only way to go.
WARNING! BETA SPRAY! Look high out right for some black crystals, pimp those things with your foot and rock up on it.

Direct Start Attempt #1
I tried to lead the direct start but couldn't pull the move over the second bolt.
