5 out of 5 stars So good, I wept

Really fantastic route. Need to go back and tighten it up, especially the fifth pitch, which I led to the lip of the roof twice before falling. Left me exhausted, but begging for more. Finally figured out the footwork, I think.

Fourth pitch crux was wet and we had to French through that part, but otherwise all free climbing. Five stars in all categories.

5 out of 5 stars One of the best climbs ever done.

Only did the last pitch, but one day hope to finish the hole thing.

5 out of 5 stars good and varied

Onsight except for a wet section in the middle. The crux corner is great--hang in for good locks over the roof.

Solo Solo ascent by: Paul_W on 1989-08-05 (View Climbing Log)

5 out of 5 stars Notes on a rope solo ascent

Rope solo with aid through the hard crack up high. Very rewarding. Excellent rock and good exposure on rope solo.
