Description:
Really good route with wild exposure, doing it by combining the first 2 pitches is advised.

popular, always someone on it
lots of variance in the ratings for this 3 pitch climb. I'd have to go with P1 being 5.10d rather than the Sharp End publication of 5.10b. Someone has a typo, and I think it's Sharp End, IMO (I'm now at the point where I can onsight 90% of 5.10d climbs, while I misread this one and took a fall - something that just doesn't happen to me on 5.10b - btw, I love fingernail crimps, although after the fall I traded out the comfy multipitch shoes with the sport fit shoes for edging - that made a difference). Anyway, it's a fun climb to introduce friends to multi-pitch sport climbs. P2 is a cake walk, and P3 will give a lot of sport climbers a new experience, although not all that difficult (although I just don't understand that bolt out of the dihedral and onto the slab at top - the line jogs left, obviously.
Finally, PMI 9.7mm 60m rope stretches from P3 anchors to just above the P1 anchors with a slight downclimb.

Nice multipitch. The final pitch is excellent.

Quality!
Combined 1st&2nd pitches which were very well protected. 3rd pitch was pumpy and intimidating but also well protected

Followed GO
Fun route. A little confused by what to do when you get to the rest ledge on P2.
Surprised rc.com call's it a 10d. Guidebook says 10a.
