Awesome! I had been wanting to onsight this climb for awhile and finally did it in aug. A couple of notes, you can link pitchs 2 and 3 but it's a stretch! You can also link this climb with others to keep the difficulty more continous...after pitch 2 do High Plains Drifter(5.10b) or after pitch 3 do Cheap Date(5.10b).
