5 out of 5 stars Head Out

TR flash being brought up to first anchor, then lead Scotch Adrenaline (with one take at crux) & brought up partner to walk off the top...Sweet exposure and views! Stellar line, well worth bringing up partner for the view. Probably well-advised to swing leads so both partners get some, and to minimize rope drag at the higher crux. GREAT route!

Very well bolted, but don't slack (pun) too much on the belay, as the 1st-pitch crux is just off the deck!
