4 out of 5 stars no way this is a 5.9, but still an awesome slab route

middle bolted route on the slab. a tree is growing right in front route and close enough to chimney if you can't make the tough move.

the first move in the route is not a 5.9. i would say 5.10b, just listen to the description: iron cross with slops for both hands, feet are blind, and bump left to mono followed by two finger pocket for right. serious balance required. no way that is a 5.9. the move is a whole lot of fun and has perfect bolts placement. one of my favorite moves i have ever tried in my life!
