3 out of 5 stars Let's say "Decent" show on Earth.

Wanted a good easy warm up, but I got flash pumped on this route.

I would lean more toward describing the holds on this route as slopers than I would jugs though they are really neither. I much preferred African Herbman...those holds I would call jugs.

3 out of 5 stars Wet wet wet

Good route, fairly simple. The last section was wet from the previous day of rain and that probably added to the fun of it.
