5 out of 5 stars worthy!

take at least 2 #4Camalots, a #5(new) and an old #5 or new #6, also recommend dbls of blue tcu's and single every thing else. only need one 60m rope to get off. the second pitch is burly with 3 distinct cruxes!

5 out of 5 stars great rock 5*s

Leisurely start- left camp after 9am. Climbed it as 4 pitches: linked first two- minimal pro placed to diminish drag, then short corner to traverse- easy with great views, then the long dihedral pitch -felt the most difficult, then finished on the "Best 5.6 Ever" left of the K Crack, also did and enjoyed the K Crack but IMHO the 5.6 was more memorable. Late lunch on top, napping in the meadow by mid afternoon. 1 70M easily gets you off, a 60M would work with 2 short easy downclimbs. Rack: set of nuts, single set cams to #3camalot, 6slings.

1 out of 5 stars big block pulled from roof

while testing a nut placed next to the roof block I dislodged a 80+ lb block onto my head and chest. Luckily my belayer was spared. I managed to stay in the chimney and only suffered a flesh wound. then left a nut and down climbed.

5 out of 5 stars finally! long awaited but worth it.

casual approach from the NW. car to car 6hrs -no rush, relaxed perhaps a half hour on the summit. Favorite pitch:#3. Almost greased out of the squeeze near the top when my foot slipped!! recommend: 1ea 0.5-1", 2ea #1,2,4camalot, 3ea #3, 1ea #3.5 & a few small nuts. 1 70M gets you off.

5 out of 5 stars over too soon

nice but short, reminds me while somewhat easier yet similar to the P1 crux of Lightening Bolt Cracks.
