5 out of 5 stars La Linea Negra aka La Puta Negra.

This thing u really need to want it or otherwise it will spit ya off. On my red point attempt Red climbed it before me and broke off a key crux hold at the top. I got all the way to the top and fell moving off the "new" hold. Sooo pissed, I sent next go. Amazing climb! thx RJ for the motivation.

Really fun and sustained. Crimpy at the top. Red broke a hold off the top, now its a little harder. Still 12c though.

4 out of 5 stars ascent note

A fun crimpy route with cool movement. A little crumbly in places, but that is likely due to it not seeing much traffic yet. Pretty darn cool.
