4 out of 5 stars Wasted

When i got on this thing it was in the afternoon sun about 90 degrease out! The old guidebook listed it as a 5.11b/c I think but it is for sure harder. I found the crux to be the 2nd clip. Moving above that to the overhand wasn't that bad. I have yet to revisit it.

4 out of 5 stars Spine Tingler

I felt like the crux was on the lower section, moving up to the roof on strange, technical arete moves. Very fun!
