Cool, pumpy
Really fun route. The first pitch has plenty of cool moves on formations that are really unique. The Belay station is kind of awkward. Second pitch is a tufa traverse that is still a little dirty in spots with a tricky technical crux near the end (watch the swing). Long and pumpy, but super fun an unique. Felt kind of heavy starting liposuction with 13 draws on my harness...
