Great route with only a few pitches that weren't that rad. psyched to punch it for the onsight on the crux pitch. it was either send, or huge whipper! 11a splitter pitch was fantastic and very glad to break that in 2 pitches. got a cam stuck in the roof traverse cause i couldn't get it without taking. approach was easy, big day in the mountains!
