Red Point ascent by:
Wife in the Fast Lane
This is a pretty fun one. There is a boulder start and a ground start and both are fun. If you do the ground start, clip bolt 1 from the boulder first.

Onsight ascent by:
From the ground
Which the guidebook says is 11a. Felt fairly appropriate. Not really super difficult climbing but a few tough moves and rather pumpy the whole time.

Really fun climb.
I've been on this a couple of times as an after-thought at the end of the day, but finally gave it a real shot for the send. I'm with the previous poster that suggests an 11a grade from the ground. The boulder problem to start this sucker, plus the ever-increasing pump towards the top makes this an 11a in my book (on par with Blowing Smoke at the Monkey). Definitely 10d if you skip the boulder problem though.

good climb
I projected this thing for months, then eventually gave up on it. Finally came back to it. It's actually a pretty sweet climb.
