3 out of 5 stars 1 hang on TR

My right foot hurt!! :(

Was not my favorite route ever due to the monotonous movement. I found one technique that worked and did that over and over... and then it hurt.

5 out of 5 stars Very good route

Pretty easy if you're comfortable with thin hands. After the first few feet, it's not really #1s, it's 2.5 friends and tight #2s, right up until it pinches down at the top (but then you get feet).

This route was a beauty, not a 5.11c I don't think. The hands were great, but my right ankle was killing me, and I brought the wrong shoes so my toes wouldn't even fit in the damn crack hardly. I finally resorted to climbing it with both feet in the crack, moving my right foot up and then placing me left hand on the wall and bringing my left foot up and repeat for 120 feet!!
