Comments: Finally got around to redpointing this thing today. I think it is harder than Peer Review @ 12b. More sustained and a longer crux IMHO. Great climb!!

Comments: Finally sent this thing today. I'd say 12c is fair. The crux feels a lot harder than Slammer, Big Dog, and Peer Review which are all between 12a-b IMHO. Great line!

Comments: Pitch 4 is stellar! But watch the crumbly stuff for the first few bolts, kicked off a softball-sized rock (didn't change the route or grade at all). IMHO, don't do the last pitch, not that fun but the 4th pitch really is fantastic! Also, be careful if using a 60 m rope. We tried to link the first two pitches together using a 60 and had to switch to a 70 (which I was trailing) about 1 bolt from the second belay spot, not sure if I would have made it there or not. Was able to rappel on the two tie... more >>

Comments: A really fun route! One trick pony that I sent on my second burn, didn't really feel it was 11d, and yes I went straight at the crux, just need the correct beta. I felt that the second pitch of "Not One Of Us" was much, much harder and graded slightly below @ 11c/d in the book. But I climbed it later in the day and my tips were pretty gnarled.

Comments: Loved this route! So fun, tried to onsight and fell at the chains. There is good holds up there, but I didn't find them on my first burn. Great sustained 5.11 climbing to the anchors!
