5 out of 5 stars Full value!

This route packs a punch from bottom to top, but there are rests and good pro along the way. You can place a #5 on this, but it is not necessary. Double #4's and #3's will sew up the scary bits(or you can walk them if you have singles). Don't forget small gear for the hidden cracks in the chimney.

4 out of 5 stars Tick

Really heady lead. Though I have done this dozens of times before this was my first time leading it. Breakthrough day! Make sure your head is on solid before leading this.

5 out of 5 stars Varied

This is a really fun, varied size crack, a little on the wide side but you don't need wide pro. I would bring a 4 inch cam. Not necessary but it would have made the moves right off the ground a little more safe. High quality rock and moves.
