Meh.
Start isn't terrible, and most of climb is alright. If it had ended at the last bolt it would probably get another star or two. Top's the worst part.

Piece of choss
I don't often come down from climbing anything feeling disgusted, but this route came close. Short face of choss, fragile rock (a friend who was climbing after me broke off something at the top, and it looked like there were lots of other freshly-broken-off features). Not worth it.
I guess .10b is fair, but if you compare this route to the other two 5.10 slabs in the same area, then either the other two should be downgraded from 5.10a to 5.8, or this one should be upgraded to 5.10c/d. Maybe it was 5.10b before all the features broke off, but as it is now, all "5.10 climbers" in our group had a hard time on this route...
