Good 5.4
Too bad this is not a lot longer. Some good moves in a short section. Enjoyed it and the downclimb.

Onsight ascent by:
5.4? Where is all the blood from then???
The trail of blood up the crack seems to say that someone found it harder than a 5.4

Sweet finish
to a Joshua Tree trip. Makes a perfect last climb. Not such a good idea at dusk, the climb is fine but the downclimb isn't as fun in the dark.
