3 out of 5 stars wimper, hehe

Yeah, those crimps at the beginning are pretty painful. Glad it got a consensus rating of 11b because it certainly didn't feel like an 11a... :)

4 out of 5 stars a little bit heady

I don't like the bolt placement.

4 out of 5 stars fun, I like

I like that small left hand crimp near the first bolt. Clipping that last bolt can be a little tricky until you find that bomber left hand.

3 out of 5 stars one move wonder

I'm a little under 5'8" and didn't have any problem with the crux (which is the first move off the ground).

3 out of 5 stars heady

Very heady climb, imo. Clipping the 4th bolt is freaky; bending backwards and reaching up high is a very unsettling feeling for me.

4 out of 5 stars bouldery start

The first few moves are pretty tough but it's a cakewalk after the crux (which I thought was pretty tricky to figure out). I love the bolt placement, I feel very safe climbing this one.

Clipping the chains is waaaay below 5.12a.

3 out of 5 stars one powerful move

The crux is moving past the first bolt. I utilize a high right hand gaston. It's one of those moves where ya gotta grunt a little, but then feel pretty bad ass once you're past it.

2 out of 5 stars Fern Bar

First move is fun and a little strengthy. Next climb between the 2nd bolt and the rusty piton (easier alternative is to climb to the left of the 2nd bolt and traverse over). Gaining the chains is kinda a bitch.

4 out of 5 stars a little tricky at the top

I think clipping the last bolt is a bitch, so I just skip it.
