| Super cool problem. There's a bit of leavitation involved in the topout, I think. |

| If you can't do it, it feels like V8. If you can do it it feels like V5. I started on the right (downriver) side of the boulder and traversed low and left across the face to the Feels Like Grit start and then climbed it. It is a fun variation to do if you get bored and enjoy playing on slab. |

| Feels V5 or easier. |

| I'm interested to hear other people's beta for this line as I've done it several different ways and I think finding the specific beta that works best for you will contribute to whether it feels v5 or v8...I also feel that height is a bit of a factor on this climb in terms of reaching the slot on the face from the better feet. Any thoughts? |

| I did it without the arete using a sidepull out right. Stood up on a good left foot and grabbed a slot right before the topout with my left hand I believe. Felt pretty hard, but easier than climbing the arete. Kind of hard to call it the same climb though... |
