Lives up to its name
Not entirely onsight... followed the first pitch clean and onsighted pitch 2. I do think that I would have fallen on the first if I'd tried to lead it because, although no moves are very hard, the holds are pretty hidden when exiting the roof. Anyway, good climbing overall and exciting. Still good bit of loose rock for such a "classic" that made the runouts even more heady. Hard moves were protected well.
