5 out of 5 stars Very exciting

The feet on the traverse into the v notch are teeny, tiny. Establishing yourself into the v-notch was an exercise in stemming, smearing and moving off some crimpers to jugs. Gear is great, but, this shorty would have to make some moves before plugging gear. Finish on lichen.
