5 out of 5 stars great climbing with a beautiful summit

I led 80 feet of the first pitch then failed at the strenuous crux and Joe finished it. I then led 2nd pitch without incident. Clean rock, stellar climbing, an exciting finish and wonderful views. It even has a jump off! On the last 20 feet of P2 I recommend going right and stemming then leaning up instead of Mark's nutcase suggestion of the unprotected and exposed headwall left. Great line Mark!
