0 out of 5 stars Ascent Note

First attempt at leading it; got to the top of the second pitch, and was turned away by water seeping all over P3. Did the P1 face climb variation instead of going up the gulley. Nice climb, very easy, good to do when taking out new multipitch climbers.

Note - P3 is NOT a 5.2 pitch; more along the lines of 5.3+. Some actual technique is needed in the dihedral.
