Sweet send
Had gotten on this last year, but didn't get it clean. I failed again on my first try this year, but reaquainted myself with the beta. It was becoming dark fast, but I decided to get on it one more time. I took a few glugs from the wine bottle and sent it by headlamp. It was crazy how easy it felt that time. Was surreal to look out on the moonlit valley at the top.

Hang Dog ascent by:
it'll go
Fell once at the crux. Continued from the rest before the crux. Rested on the rope past the hard stuff, above the second bolt, to collect myself and get my gear straight. Once you blow the onsight or redpoint, it's hard to keep a hard edge on the focus, eh? Got it clean on top rope afterward. Good temps and fresh skin are useful. Keep your head tied on for that unprotected start.

Second ascent by:
follow the leader
Followed my partner on this hard climb. For a leader, the bottom is potentially troubling, with no pro for about 10-15 feet. Not hard climbing per se, but kind of tricky. Crux is well protected with two bolts, but the moves are hard. Agree that you need to do this in the fall. I took a fall at the crux.

Great Route
Took one hang at the second bolt. Hard crimps and very little feet but a very fun climb!
