Randy Leavitt did the bottom portion of this route and (believe it or not) fell at the upper part. Running out of daylight, he bailed it. Soon thereafter Cameron finished it up getting the FA.

Can't wait to get back to Woodson, my core was way too weak to send last time I was on MS.

The left branch of MS goes at 5.11b. True Story: Back in the early 80's I saw a guy highball this variation drunk at sundown almost in the dark! I have no idea who this wrap around glasses character was!

A fantastic exercise in bad sizes. The start is ridiculously steep if you can't get kneelocks and stacks (I had to armbar with sloppy thigh locks). Enough variations in size and angle to make it pretty technical getting through the transitions between techniques.
