Soft for J tree
I just kept waiting for a 5.10 move.... it never happened. Felt like a stiff 5.8 sport route. Gear is pretty useless on this route. The horizontals will keep you from doing a combat roll and protecting the top is unnecessary if you can make it through the midway point of the climb. The down climb is almost as hard.
