5 out of 5 stars Spectacular!!!

THis route was awesome. I am pretty sure I did the direct. It felt like 10d. I accidentally linked the first 2 pitches.

5 out of 5 stars one of the best routes in the gunks.

The bulge of the Direct is great and doesn't detract from the awesomeness of the roof. When I did the climb in 1991 we had no idea the regular route was supposed to traverse left after the big roof. A traverse right led to a huge lichen covered wall. Straight up seemed a little loose but the gear was great and the climbing is maybe 5.9. Most people do it this way, right?
