Description:
From the northwest face, follow the best looking crack up to a thin chimney. slough through or take the chunky face to a larger chimney. Progress through chimney and over an annoying block to SUPER spacious ledge. Belay second up and continue to right around a roofy thing to the top. expect old school ratings here, plus i think some holds may have disappeared at the start.

Second ascent by:
Clunky
Without the traverse left, the route was a ~5.8 though pro placing was a bit of work. Large 4 or 4.5 necessary to protect the top chimney/ offwidth

Way to damn hot
Greg lead this route, and I followed it took him like thirty minutes to lead, and I followed in about 5! It was great!

5.7 my A$$
Probably most sandbagged 5.7 I have ever been on. Moves are super hard, but it protects easily and solidly. Maybe next time I am strong enough to place few cams at the crux without pulling on the cams.
