Nice OW at the bottom. Transitions into face climbing. The knobs are reachy in spots. Might be harder than 5.9 for a shorter person.
For Yosemite climbing, this is just an ok route. So much more to see and do.

4 out of 5 stars -

Crack is a lot of fun, face climbing has interesting moves. Feels like two completely different climbs stacked on top of each other. I'll take the OW, leave the knobs.
