[Eds. a couple negative comments were deleted here.] The route is certainly at least 13c and while it isn't the choicest climb on the wall, it's worth a run. The Primo Wall and adjacent Nomad Cave have the highest density of 5.13 and up routes outside of Rifle. Virtually everywhere else there are one or two good climbs and that's it. The reason why is that people took the trouble to add routes that others...consider a waste of time. If you don't like the climb stay off it but quit dissing others for their efforts. Try to surpass them with your own.

Does this route do the crux of Primeval then bust left or does it go left before that???

I believe it's before that. Not that I've done it. But the description does say do the first 3 bolts of Primeval, then bust left (the crux is between the 4th and 5th, if I'm not mistaken).

Thanks. It is definitely the random looking bolt before you really get hammering on Primeval.
