Medium to large gear for the first pitch. The second pitch doesn't have much gear, but small to medium. If you continue to the gulley, not much gear here except for a couple pieces closer to the gulley.

3 out of 5 stars Pretty adventurous for the precipice.

Definitely heady at the grade but has some nice climbing on each pitch.
