Dan Beland: Small cam for the topout would be nice - maybe .4 ish? The climbing isn't hard but there are no positive holds. -
Audrea Nolan: Run out from last bolt to chains. Small can can be used. I did it without.

Realized today that I had never tried to lead this beautiful route! Glad it went down fast and I didn’t have to temp fate into sending me for a big ride more than necessary. -

Direct finish -

Tried once over a decade ago and remember feeling rattled about it. First go today I wimped out heading direct to the anchor and bailed out left. Found some holds and did it proper the next go. Gear would have eased the spice.

Really nice cool sunny day. Fun route. Very runout at the top and tall first bolt hahah felt slightly bold . -

Super fun. Definitely a bit reachy. Scary without a cam protecting the runout finish

A nemesis for me somehow. Maybe it was the huge fall I took of the top 2 years ago. Great climbing though. -

2015-08-11Last bolt to the anchor scared the crap out of me. Good to get my head back in the game after a month without leading. -
Tried once on top rope, then lead it - glad I did as this climb is a bit intimidating... very fun movement - good technical challenge

neat climb got it second go would get on this again -
Second go. Slightly disappointed that I didn't get the onsight (because I didn't see the sidepull jug in the crux section) but nonetheless I'm happy that I got to climb it twice. Fun climbing with a techy crux sequence

A high bolt leads to a sensitive, off-vertical move that guards the last few meters of the route. Overcome a polished bulge and clip the anchors.

Sent second go. It was my buddy's project.
-
Didn’t stick clip the first bolt and did the proper finish
