Description
Great line that burls up a slightly overhanging dihedral, then changes character completely with a testy face traverse.
Super fun - there are big flanges to pull on in the dihedral, and always decent stemming you can get going to keep any pump down. But the moves are continuous and fun. Then the face traverse is a real shift in tactics after all the stemming!
The book gave this route no stars, which I assume is because they never did this line? At any rate I think it is one of the best 10a sport climbs I've ever done. Do it if you are in the area!
