Went back this spring and sent it first try this season. Awesome climb which is committing and exciting. Gear is good except for the top I didn't have anything that could protect the dihedral.

My hardest onsight attempt to date. Took no less than a 20 footer at the crux onto a #1 Camalot. I mighty fun attempt at this climb, and I'm looking forward to my next attempt.

very diverse. a little scary. 70m just barely gets you to the ground, but the belay ledge 20 feet up is pretty nice.
