Red Point ascent by:
exciting
Like most gunks climbs it'll get your heart pumping! Lots of fun!
Had seconded it years ago and got the lead this past weekend. Hence the honest "Redpoint".

Onsight ascent by:
SMALL NUT!
So the guide book (Dick Williams) mentions that you should back up the pin at the crux with a small nut. He ment really small. The only nut that I could get (although bomber) was a DMM Micro nut rate at 4kn. I equalized it with the pin and felt good about it. The crux is commiting and leaves another 5.7+ move before you get more gear. Lots of fun!

PG for sure
There is now way that the traverse is G. The pin that protect it are a joke. However, great route! Wouldn't reccomend it for a 5.7 leader though.

betta intensive
P1: dirty
P2: I started the route 10ft right of where I was supposed to be. Made for 3 nice crux sections. This was a tough climb but very fun. Never saw the angle piton as described in the williams book.

Do every pitch!
So last year I did the first pitch thinking that was all that was worth doing. then my friends kept saying I should do the second pitch and they were right. I would also say that the third pitch 5.4 is one of the best fours I've done. Clean beautiful corner system with a great last move. Do it all!!!
P.S. Second pitch can be wet after a rain.
