Had to hang once, but...
Jeff Dillon would not take a no for my answer to his offer of another belay, so up I went. So stressed by this route that he had to keep reminding me to unclip. And forgot to take a right, and did take a brief seat to get back on track. Having done it, can't believe it is really 5.9; but everyone and Jeff says so, so must be--especially on such a wicked lead: Shawn Barb put in a bunch of extra protection pieces. At my teasing challenge, Jeff did go straight up, slick as a cat.
This wall gets running water seeping from under the roof after a lot of rain, so don't count on being able to get on it. Otherwise, get on it.

worth a go but take care
Nice to finally get a chance at this as the amphitheater was dry for once. Usually this route is a waterfall! Fun moves on good holds if you look around a bit. Definitely runout in places though, as you wouldn't want to screw up your clips! One more bolt probably would have made it reasonable... plus the usual standard Pilot crazy high first bolt, but at least you can clip off of a jug. Interesting to note that as this doesn't get climbed nearly as often as it's neighbors the holds actually still have some good friction left which definitely helps.
Not exactly an onsight but I forget the proper terminology since I a) watched someone put it up and b) they left the draws. I then re-lead it.

Where's the alzheimer's onsight ascent style?
I thought this was 5.8 when I left the ground. Also thought the bolts were closer together than they are. And pretty much figured that there was one more bolt. Very fun revisiting this route.

Run-out...
Definitely run-out, but the moves are fairly straightforward. If you are strong at the grade, it should be a really fun route.
