Not for the beginner 5.8 leader
You'll definitely get your money's worth on this one! Just enough spots in the thinning flake/crack system for fingers and pro. The anchor at the top was sketchy, so we topped out and rapped off of Vision's anchors. Might be better to just finish up and left to the Vision anchors if no one is on it.

Fun flake
Did this in 40ish degree weather. The crux moves on the lower part felt hard (This is a 5.8 in the guidebook, but whatever). Protection was fine with small pieces.
