Warmed up on this
Doug led. Crux is up high allowing you to warm up before you get into the business, which only felt like a few moves.

followed my girl up this... she made me proud with the redpoint of this cuz she's petite and it felt reachy for me. good crux that slaps you in the face in preparation for harder stuff.

Fun route
Protects really well at the crux and really isn't that bad, only a couple moves and its done. Give it a try, closer to 10- than 10+.

Classic Finish
Easy climbing fingers/stems to great jams. Rest well below the obvious crux! Then fire the slippery off/hand jams or you'll be feeling like a Retard!

almost got the top...
had to pull through. Not proud of it but gotta record it so I can see how much better I"m getting, que no? The rest of the climb up to that point seemed really pretty easy.

tough crux
I wholeheartedly disagree with the beta sprayed forth by Mandrake in an earlier ascent log. Pure crackclimbing on tough flared jams. Stay tight and stick with it and it will be over before you know it. Remember what's flared and awkward for the hands can be absolutely bomber for the feet. All that said, this route is as hard as 5.10 gets.
