Stellar, Tricky, Fun
Highball start leads to good pro on the flake. It is a little bit tricky at the crux, and super runout at the top, but the crux is short and the top is scrambly. All in all, a good, old (FA was in 1977!), route.
Small nuts and Cams up to BD #2.

Diiiirty
Past the flake, the entire route is caked in moss. Very sketchy.

Tricky
(I messed up before, climbed it now). Tricky lead. Exposed. A bit runout. Tricky crux moves.

Ascent Note
Easy fun route. A nice warm-up. A littel run out at the top, but easy
