4 out of 5 stars much more fun than expected

cleaner and more thoughtful than all the hype alludes to. still cleaned off a few loose bits. second pitch is dull but nice view from the top.

4 out of 5 stars dirty fun

once out of the cave, this climb is really nice. one of the few decent cracks at BB. rope drag is an issue but can be avoided by unclipping smartly and using long runners. aside from the dirty start, the upper 3/4th of this climb (once thru the cave) are very fun and offer many chances to practice jams and laybacks.

5 out of 5 stars Fun Climb with a bit of surprise!

Seconded this one three years ago. More fun on lead. Forgot about the second "roof". Could have used a second or third red camalot. Climbed with a party of three and split into 4 pitches (Dick). This was a bit over kill, as setting a long anchor at the top could have allowed me to see and hear both Dick's 3rd and 4th pitches. None the less, 4 pitches and 3 climbers later, we were rapping in the dark... making a surprising climbing day even that much more memorable.

3 out of 5 stars 5.8 if you're 7 feet tall.

The Butterfield book says .10a. Maybe not...but not an .8.
