It was about a year ago. Me first sport climb lead. I found the crux between the first and second bolt. Definitely recommend!

Engaging slab climbing up a lovely buttress. Fairly modern bolting for JTree.

Looks like a hold has broken below the first bolt, making the first bulge a lot more difficult than 5.9. I have 4 tries at this and I know I can climb 5.9 on-sight.
