4 out of 5 stars Fell at the top!

Linked it up with the first pitch.. I was expecting the move or two off the ledge would be the crux, but they felt fine--it was the last moves to gain the slab at the top of the layback that got me. Fell down past the first set of bolts on a blindly placed (but good, and checked before I moved above it) orange tcu.

5 out of 5 stars great climb

Pretty bloody good for VA! Nice long route when done as single pitch from the ground. Wasn't too worried about pro at lower crux but glad I didn't blow the top out

4 out of 5 stars Nice Fall send

Once you figure out the right idea for that first move, you're in for great climbing.

5 out of 5 stars a bit stiff

I found this a bit hard for 11a. Watch the first move. a number of people have sprained their ankles badly.
