It's good!
This is a nice trad line. Protection is great on it (down low). The upper chimney doesn't protect well, unless you have some REALLY BIG CAMS or small cams with 4 foot runners. I was stuck up in the chimney for a long time trying to figure it out. Eventually I did. Follow a thin seam of crimpers to the right and head out to the arete, you get a HUGE hold when you get there. Then you can plug a cam right in the roof.
