4 out of 5 stars Slopey

Got on this route a few times before. Ending is slopey and like someone else mentioned the feet are quite high. Easiest to clip the chains at waist level and skip the last bolt. Stout for the grade compared to others.

4 out of 5 stars Great movement.

This route is a great compliment to Blood of the Dead, but a notch up in difficulty. Even though you could probably clip the chains from beneath the roof, all routes were originally intended to be topped-out. High (and poor) feet make the final traverse moves difficult.
