Alternate leads onsight, sev took the harder pitch which ended up being soft for 6b and well protected. I led the 6a pitch which turned out to be quite runout and dangerous. Classic alpine granite, funky movement with spectacular exposure in wild positions! The crux was reading movement with the gardens of moss and lichen on the holds. A stellar day in the mountains!
