4 out of 5 stars Check your grip

Good route but didn't think it was ultra classic. Super pumped and barely hung on for the onsight hanging draws.

5 out of 5 stars Check your Grip

Got scared at the end of the sidepull crux section and downclimbed on my onsite attempt. Really good climbing, one of my favorites at Drive-by.
