5 out of 5 stars Really easy for a 12

This route was really fun, similar to all the other routes on this wall. There's a weird but fun reachy part in the middle. I fell once on the crux at the top, before figuring it out. Cool moves though.

5 out of 5 stars Fun

All the routes at the drive by crag felt almost exactly the same to me, with various degrees of difficulty. This one was excellent and solid at the grade. I got pumped and had to take near the top

5 out of 5 stars Great

Favorite route that I did on this wall. Every move was fun on cool holds, and it was pumpy but not too bad.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome

Really an excellent climb. Sustained vertical crimpers for seventy or so feet. One of my favorites at the red.

4 out of 5 stars Good

I think this is the route I climbed, but it could have been the other 11b. Really weird pockets at the bottom, some went really deep. After the first ledge it got pretty easy.

5 out of 5 stars scary...

I was terrified leading this route. You really have to trust all those nothing holds on the slab. It is long and sustained, but worth it. A really cool climb.

5 out of 5 stars Memorable crux

One of my favorite routes I tried at the red. Bottom's really fun and easy, 4th clip is scary as shit, then you move into the crux. I took a bunch of falls trying to figure the sequence out, but once I got it it wasn't too bad. Runout to the anchors, but the climbing's easy.

5 out of 5 stars Amazing amazing climb

Clipped into gear that my friend placed. This route is just so sweet, its impossible to put into words. Really atypical of the climbing at the red
