4 out of 5 stars Pleasantly surprised

Did this a while back and didn't realize it's an 5.11a. Awesome! With that said, very sustained, feel-around climb. Less-than-ideal protection between second and third bolt...took a healthy whipper on this guy.

4 out of 5 stars Cool Route

Fun climb, took a little while to figure out, almost pumped out figuring out what to do.

4 out of 5 stars great climb... bad anchor locations

watch the rope getting caught in a crack when lowering. Left anchor should be moved right of the right anchor or both down lower to the right. That would eliminate the bad rope drag and also it feeding into the crack.

3 out of 5 stars fun pulling the bulge at the end

good route, burned some energy working out the beta, but had enough left to pull the bulge. Permadraws were a little hard to clip, so not sure the purpose of having them there. Fun route.
