Description:
Classic 5.10 finger crack/liebacking leads to hands then really steep fists and ends with heinous offwidth moves. Taping is helpful!

Beautiful line, but gnarly.
When I found this I just said "wow, that's pretty". And like the description says, it starts small on the dihedral, then leads to some decent hands, then fists (which I'm not yet good at), then just barely wider than fists. (Bring the #4s for this last part). I had a hell of a time getting up this thing and basically had to aid the last part. Hopefully I'll get it clean next time. Definitely worth trying!

Physical! Been on it a few times over the past 2 years and this was the first time I got it clean.
