4 out of 5 stars Burly

Did this route in 11 hours (21 hours car-to-car) with Shay. We got off route somewhere in the middle but managed to get back on track. (We climbed the offwidth that the description here clearly says "do not climb"... doh! It was hard!)

At one point I did a dyno on lead to what turned out to be a sloper, then I was forced to climb a bunch of face holds before I could get back to the crack... whooo!

Loads of offwidth and flaring hand-cracks made this a pretty physical route. We brought a double set of cams to #2 camalot, a single #3 and a big hex and that was about right.
