Did this route on Saturday. Great day with lots of sunshine!
Nice little face climb with good movement that is sustained for 4 bolts.
You can stick clip the first bolt with long stick.

Felt like 12c to us....

Awesome continuous climbing, not sure if it warrents a pg-13, but a wonderful route that will keep ya crimpin' and pimpin'.

Quite possibly one of my favorite pitches of 5.12 in the state.
