If the rock were a bit more solid this route would easily be 4 stars. All the same, it is a lot of fun! Cool crux move and overhanging plate hauling. When you see it, you will want to climb it!

Looks good and climbs better! The upper half is tons of fun on the overhanging plates. Really great route and a must do at the Gallery.

Impressively overhung for the grade. Some of the plates feel like time-bombs to me but then again, maybe not. Not as good or as hard as Breakfast Burrito.

Such a fun climb! Take a relaxing rest on the awesome ledge halfway up before getting to the jug haul. Cleaning it is tough, just like any overhanging climb.

One of the best 10's I've ever done! Tall, overhung, jughaul. Super fun
