somewhat physical...
...for a 5.8, I agree that the route is good, bit only worth the walk if you are looking to do other routes in the area.

Labrador Reliever
Not worth the walk for this climb. It does have some cool moves, but overall not nearly as good many other routes at New of this grade. Somewhat of a let down.
