This route was awsom, it is a must do, we did the 5.10 variation and was awsom climbing, the traverse pitch was increadable with the huge exposure, the crux was just the heady part of the climbing.

Ascent Note
I did enjoy this route, it is a very diffcult 5.8 and the pin that is protecting the crux move to the station needs a very low profile beiner to close, the bolt at the staion needs to be upgraded as well, difently a must do route for Kidd Goat

a short day out, it took me 2 hours to run up and come down, if you were to climb with partner it would be a little slower

Ascent Note
Climb this route just for pitch 2 and 3. They are quite fun for the 5.7 grade. Cruxs are well protected but the rock is very high friction and mostly soild so for the run out areas you dont even notice. Some of the climbing is a litle tricky but only to know which way to go since you could climb almost anywhere. On the climb its self use the micro holds well. I do recomend this route and think that it desvers a star.

Found the route fun but I would not call it a Yam 5.8. It shares the first two pitchs of Easy street as most of the west end routes do. I found this climb alot more of a sport route than trad however that being said this is not a sport climb. I would say one of the better west end routes.
