5 out of 5 stars Great fun!

I agree that this is a reachy route, but the flakes are solid and there is a good spot to hook a right heel. Depending on the anchor setup, you can top-out and walk down/around, or lower back to the start.

3 out of 5 stars Variations

For a fun variation, get yourself up and under the overhang, then work your way up the crack/crevice, under the roof, and around to the top without using the slab -- great for practicing foot jams/cams.

4 out of 5 stars The Throne

Once you reach the platform, try not to use the wall to the right, if you can help it.
