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.

Awesome finish for a journey up the Chief. A bit of everything in this last section with some exposed flake pulling, scary chimney section and then some more exposed ledge walking up the top. Great day!!!

Incredible climb. Loved the steep flake in pitch 1, challenging enough to to make you think. Pulled a beached whale over the mantle and didn't manage to impress the soloer below. The scramble up the final pinball-machine style ledges was the icing on the cake. Beauty!
