Amazing climb - but scary
I distinctly remember climbing this route. It was a hot September day and I led the crux first pitch. The bolts were wide apart and the foot and hand holds insecure. Very delicate climbing was required and a good headspace. If you were prone to sewing machine leg, you would be flying.
