FYI, J-Tree West '06, lists this as a 5.8 R.

I thought it was 5.8.

The horizontal before the crux takes decent gear, although it's probably a good idea to equalize at least two pieces here. The move getting to the bolt didn't feel like 10a to me. Maybe a 9 at most. This is a decent route with good rock and it's convenient to do after ticking The Bong. It would be nice if it had a couple more bolts. While the existing bolt looked quite new and solid, this route should have an R rating for sure.
