Too dry and lots of dust from the grassy tuffs blowing on our faces. Gotta say, the crack pitch felt tougher than 5.9 as did the 2nd one.

Very Enjoyable!
Loved the climbing and the setting was fabulous. We did it in light rain so I didn't complain that it was so easy :)

Redpoint
Tried it years ago. Pretty terrible route. First moves are boring, one fun(ish) move and then crappy rock to the top.

Found the crux to be near the top. Took me a while to figure it out, but was quite fun once I did.

Great Route!
Really enjoyed this. Fantastic face climbing led to a fun small roof move which is easier than it looks and finishes up with some easy face moves.

Chopped or Removed Anchors
Great route, only problem was that some of the anchors were chopped or removed. Be sure to bring some cams or nuts for making anchors!!! If you intend to protect the pitches, be sure to bring even more!!!
As for crowding, I think spring is the time to do it, there was no one else on the route (or the mountain for that matter). Weather was fantastic. The only issue was that the residual snow on the approach and descent made it necessary to bring crampons, boots, and axes in the packs.
Took our party of three about three hours to climb the route.
