4 out of 5 stars swollen ankle mess

As far as I know this was the first ascent along this line. I climbed up the water covered slick rocks to the right of my original planned route. for some reason they seemed safer then the paint covered ones just to the left. (which produced a sprained left ankle a few days prior). there is some beautiful fingertip cracks and flakes all the way up the face and i did my best to stick to only these instead of some of the larger holds.
