5 out of 5 stars hard 11c climbing

I found the first pitch to be quite challenging for 11c. The climbing was incredibly varied however, with a wonderfully fun slab start (6 bolts or so), a very cool cruxy bulg section with heal hooks, followed by overhang and stemming. I finally got the red point on my third go, but I would probably call this a 12a or so, especially given the endurance required. The first pitch requires 17 draws!!!!

5 out of 5 stars GREAT ROUTE

I found the third pitch to be a little run out with terrible full potential.

All around a great route.

I would give this an R for the third pitch. JMHO

5 out of 5 stars Perfect limestone

This is an excellent multi-pitch limestone route, reminiscent of routes in the Verdon. I didn't know we had stuff like this in the States!
