Description:

Hand crack on face, around the corner left of Hackberry I just dropped the rating to 5.8, which is what the book says. Others say easier than that. Can't believe someone listed it as a 9. Much easier than Hackberry which went at "5.9-" on the Hell score sheet.

5 out of 5 stars Nice to learn

We talked to a nice couple in the morning. He was kind enough to show Allan and myself some crack climbing techniques.

After that I cruised up this with nary a pause, cleaning the route for Allan! I thought it was a nice line especially to learn hand and foot jamming technique on.

As for ratings I'd consider this a 5.7 or 5.7+, after given that sams throne, to thick to navigate is a 5.8- which was way harder than this.
