Ascent Notes for: Mail Box - 5.9 Average Rating : 3.00/5

.

Im comfortable leading most 10s on gear..and I thought this was a weird route all together..and the top fingercrack was pumpy and difficult for a 5.8 grade..I agree with the description on here..does make you work, all kinds of climbing on this route, highly recommend for the fun factor!

Yea, I agree that the top is probably harder than 5.8. THIN lieback and an annoyingly tough topout (just when you think the hard part is over you have to deal with that crap...) It's pretty obvious what you are getting into from the ground though. Our leader who's pretty confident on 10s had to get some coaching at top... glad I didn't try the lead. At least it takes gear well where it gets hard.

Would have onsighted if not for the dislocation conundrum

if someone had told me the top moves were 5.9+ i would have argued with them. definitely a must do!
