3 out of 5 stars Popular route

Lineup at the start, people passing as we climb.

Lower pitches were well bolted and route finding was easy -- higher up became less clear, with gear and pins being more common. Not consistent at its grade, either. The ridge traverse at the end, though, has beautiful exposure, though is easy climbing. Not consistent enough to be the classic it is considered.
