| Absoulutely incredible! You will feel like a million bucks after a send of this baby! Middle section was the toughest for me with the end just a mater of keeping it together when I was pumped. |

| My first 12 lead so holy awesome. Just really fun to dyno to big holds and having to bite down that painful two finger pocket. Definitely tests you the whole way to the chains. Almost blew it up there. After talking to an old timer, I guess a few big holds have fallen off of this making it harder than 12a? Food for thought. |

| Probably still .12a but bouldery as hell, so I'd give it a hard .12a The crux is definitely the middle section and involves BIG moves on some really shitty holds, with the occasional bomber pocket. I agree with crisco that the last bit is nothing more than keeping it together, just don't blow it at the chains or you're in for a moderate fall. Find your feet quick cause your hands won't last long, keep moving til the chains are clipped! This one is getting a little slick. |

| With the right beta, this climb is 12a or even easier than that. |

| Each hold was bigger than I expected for such a bouldery route, long pulls between holds though. I would say solid 12a once you know the sequence. |
