5 out of 5 stars -

My hardest route to date. Saw a couple guys working this one day I was out bouldering. They were having some trouble and asked if I'd like to take a spin on it. Borrowed their harness, crossed my fingers on their toprope anchor, then sailed right up it! I think the fear of falling on someone else's unseen anchor might have been motivational. Crux is the face climbing where you can't get fingers behind the flake.
