4 out of 5 stars Interesting climb - felt kinda trady (a good thing!)

Nice flakes and finger cracks make this baby enjoyable. Some dirty ledges.

4 out of 5 stars These gatineau 5.8s are tough!

After failing to lead this, did it on top-rope, with some struggling.

I got stuck going the wrong way on this, had to take a second shot. It\'s a nice move from a sidepull up around the arete, deeper than you\'d think.
