Gets a mega classic from me for the variety and unique moves - not very often you can chimney and layback at the same time. Great climbing high above the hordes on the apron and the highway noise, and you get a chance to see people crushing on the Prow Wall.
Took a #4 but couldn't find a placement on P6 (I looked), still salty about dragging it up all the way to the top. Gear is good on the climb and the two bolts on the crux pitch makes it feel much easier than other 5.9s. Thought the whole climb was soft for the grade. |

Wow. Quite the step up! Super long pitch with long sustained sections of super shitty finger locks. Completely wasted by the time I got to the top. Well worth a TR solo, as long as you don't screw up the sustained first 10m and hit the ground with rope stretch.
