5.7 seems unlikely
Maybe if you are good at jamming technique... this seemed pretty burly for 7. I mean is someone really going to say this the same grade as "Easily Flakey" at the bridge area? Stiff awkward chimney start but it takes perfect gear (mostly #1-#3 C4 size). Once over the bulge it's pretty much all over and more like a 6 or 7 :) Was a bit sandy near the top but otherwise clean. TR'ed mock lead as part of a clinic. Would feel comfortable leading it for real later - bomber gear the whole way up but not the most aesthetic climb in the area.
