Did this a few years ago and I remember it being pretty mellow but really fun.

5 out of 5 stars Best "moderate" on Black Wall!!

Always a favorite. Worked up to soloing on this route, super solid just slightly "Off-Hands" on the last move.

5 out of 5 stars <3 <3 <3

Climbed this 4+ times now; first TR'd in summer 09. Redpointed on my first lead attempt in fall 09. It never gets old. The top never feels like a gimme--always feels like you can fall out of it every time.

4 out of 5 stars Wish you to speak to Yoda?

Take you to him, I will.
Black september is one of the true classics of blackwall. Fingers to hands to fists to big fists (or offwidth, depends on hand size). 2 resting ledges along the way.

4 out of 5 stars Black September

Great hand crack. I'd put a TR on this one to do some laps. Near the upper end of my skill set but on the right day I would lead it.
