4 out of 5 stars Fun

Good route, I doubled up on gear under the roof. You have to lean back hard to the left as your trying to get your right foot up to a small knob under the roof. The scramble to the top was less than secure.

Easy climbing to the roof. Get gear in high (maybe doubled up even) and go for it. Bump up your right hand, use small knobs for your left foot and work your left hand into a crap fingerlock then power over the roof out left.
Took the whipper several times, it's not bad.
