Description
The first 20 meters is on steep terrain with gym like moves. Everything you need is there, you just have to move quickly to avoid the pump. If the route had stopped there it would have been a 4 stars. But then after the rock changes from orange to grey, so does the texture. It becomes spiky and you are now on a vertical/slab wall where you have to crimp on those hurtful holds. The crux of this section is to get established on the vertical wall.
* It's graded 7b in the new guidebook (2016), but it could feel soft if you are in good shape. Difficult to give it a definitive grade.
* in the 2019 guidebook this route is downgraded to a 7a+ 5.12a
