Description:
rad route, across the street from the grotto. Starts out sporty with draws. The 10c section is "mellow" according to Zion standards. The next pitches go up a bitchen chimney, that is runout yet easy. I think I did it in 8 pitches, yet can't say for sure. You need to ropes to descend. Be real carefull pulling ropes they tend to get stuck on the lower rappel. Killer views on the summit

Good freeclimbing
the fifth pitch is excellent, perfect patina hands in a corner. A killer 5.10 pitch. The rest of the route is worth doing just for this pitch.

Great route and do the last pitch
The last pitch is great at solid 10. The chimneys were friendly with holds

Iron Messiah
Way to hot, but what the hell, literally! A classic, really enjoyed it, but I love dihedrals, chimneys and the like, particularly when it is hot. We combined 1 and 2; 7 and 8. Makes a lot of sense. Route goes relatively fast. Watch for that "out of order" rap station that saves you a rap in my descent notes. Super day on the rock switching leads with Zach, as always.
