Great variety on this climb, both crack & face, linked in 2 pitches w/ 60m. Unfortunately, my tooth also shattered as I was leading the 2nd pitch, as the rope drag exploded my front left #10 (it was already weakened from a root canal) as I was pulling up to clip. It was a little distracting, choking up & spitting out bone shrapnel the rest of the crack.

The guide book says " a stiff adventure over 3 pitches "
Don't continue up the fingertip layback on pitch2 ... the anchor is mank. Go left when you can see the easier crack (that is the way the route is supposed to go anyway)
