Marked 5.7 in one of the books
The J-tree Falcon Guide lists this as a 5.7. Jumped on for my morning warm-up... it worked. Took a bewildered (but small) fall before diving in. P1 rock quality sucks, P2 not much better & mostly covered in birdshit. Still had some fun & will probably get on it again someday.

Ascent Note
rope drag makes this a two-pitch climb, even though its only about a 100' long.
