Second ascent ???
I worked on this route over several months in 2012, finally getting it clean. It is like a boulder problem on a rope, with two hard sequences. The top sequence might be relatively easy for a really tall climber as the hardest move on the climb might be avoidable. I wrote up the route and suggested the AKA, but Ethan completed it the previous year.
