5 out of 5 stars I finally did it!

After TRing this route I think a couple of times on past trips, I finally led it. Had the most gusty strong wind going at the time. Almost got barn-doored off the low crux by the wind. Once the crack widened to hands, it was off to the races.

5 out of 5 stars With my big paws...

... it was a tough start to sustained super-thin hands. Really excellent line. Loved it.
