4 out of 5 stars Did this in three pitches

P1 5.7, well protected, felt right for the grade. P2 looks really crazy from the ground, climbed much easier than it looked. It's 5.9, with excellent gear. Committing, interesting moves off the belay. P3 is ok, not great, with a hard start. All in all a great climb. We rapped in on a single 70M rope, just enough rope to make it to a reasonable tree to anchor in. That section of the GT ledge is really pretty crappy, with bad rock and lousy footing. We anchored in and sat still.
