It's a great climb with everything... pumpy jug start, baby roof pull, face, finger crack, arete layback. The one thing it's not is an 11a. After the finger crack, It's insanely easy if you go up the arete to the right of the bolt line (per all the guidebooks)... frankly, it's more like a 10b. If you think the bolts seems misplaced (ie too far left), it's because to truly achieve 11-dom, you must head up the face to the LEFT of the bolt line, making it more like a 11c.
So in summary:
If you want an ego boost go up to the right of the bolt line on the arete.
If you want an ego downer go up to the left of the bolt line on the face.
So in summary:
If you want an ego boost go up to the right of the bolt line on the arete.
If you want an ego downer go up to the left of the bolt line on the face.

Yeah
Again, better than the book would make it sound. But, kind of a squeeze job. Its too easy to get pulled right onto ledges.
