5 out of 5 stars Steep

The first pitch was pretty technical in the middle. I thought it was way hard for .10b, (maybe .11a IMO). You get a great stance at the ledge before heading into the .12 terratory which I thought was pretty easy for .12b. I think the upper half is more like .11d/.12a at most.

5 out of 5 stars In love with this route!

Lisa Rands and Peter Croft were climbing a 12c next to this and I must have been powered by them because this was my hardest onsight to date. This could be why i wasn't the slightest bit pumped and it felt much easier than 12b. Great holds and line. More like 12a in my opinion. Amazing none the less!
