| I get the strong impression that neither Kelman nor Orenzak actually climbed this route before including it in their book. While Kelman's 8- is pretty close to the mark, Orenzak called this one 5.9, which is only possible if you didn't actually jam anything while climbing it. Still, a very good route and if you feel solid on 5.7, you should get on it. It is really fun movement, straightforward protection, and a nice ledge to belay from.
Also, the walkoff is more of a downclimb if you go directly behind Poker Face. Just pick and choose your options, it never gets more than 4th class. |
