4 out of 5 stars An amazing route - Solid 5.8.

Led the first pitch of Three Doves to the second pitch of Anne Oh!. P1 had some nice moves, but P2 was amazing. Multiple, 5.8 cruxes, with gear where you need it, but not necessary where I would have liked it. Thoughtful, and committing, not the best route for a new 5.8 leader (Son of Easy O, Absurdland seemed easier). Bring small and finger-sized gear, and place it whenever possible - it might be awhile until you get another chance.

4 out of 5 stars P2 only

easy climbing off the ledge, gets more difficult quickly. Good gear and an interesting exit move.

4 out of 5 stars Did both pitches today

First pitch is great, but, very limited gear opportunities. 2nd pitch has a couple of very interesting moves. Will that hollow flake fall off the wall?
