Good route. Second pitch is easier than .11 if you go left instead of straight up. A bit exciting as you could factor-2 onto a sketchy belay. First 2 pitches (we did them as one) seemed a bit burly for .10-, but maybe that was because I was carrying all of Paolo's camera equipment. He stayed on top to shoot photos of Chrissy and I (well, mainly just Chrissy) on Easter Island as the sun was going down.

The "nice hand crack" is really about # 3.5 freinds and goes even wider before the belay. The crux move is seriuosly height related i personally thought 10d, but my partner is about a full 6" shorter than me and he found it to be right on the grade. I also like the step acroos at the top of the crux airy, classic good times.
