Good little climb takes a nice #2 cam right at the bottom of the crux. Climb the crack behind the tree next start from the cr of the block. Crude unroll the wall smoothes out and finish up the bludge

Top belay required, and best climbed with a single 70m rope. Rapping with a 60m means swinging into the wall to solo downclimb on jugs...
Got too pumped after the last bolt and missed the onsight, resting at the easy jugs up top! No individual move harder than 18, but steep and pumpy. Rapping in high winds was an alpine experience.

Equal scariest ever climb with Humanality. The 2nd pitch has a very hard and scary traverse. My feet skated when I was on shitty hand holds, but I held on and found a little foot ppocket (so lucky!) and finished the traverse. Very hard.
