Great route with good gear. Had someone rappelling almost knock me off the route when I was at the crux!

5 out of 5 stars repeat send

This and exoduster are my two favorite 5.10 sport routes at the NRG. Don't know how someone could imply it is a forgettable route. It's so nice this stays dry in the rain! Nice exposure for the aspiring 5.10 leader.

5 out of 5 stars fun

I think the anchors have been replaced. Two pins. The variation on the left is more runout and not much easier, but both are worth climbing. Nice climbing with sufficient gear and pins. Try the direct face climb variation too! the crux is exciting.
