Done both with and without the direct finish. Direct is more upper body strength and less technical. Possibly why I perfered it? Great climb. Certainly worth doing. Protection is solid and easily avalible. Last time I climbed this I was belaying at the top in the hail.

Nice alternative. Straight up from the obvious belay. Better protection I felt, might have to hang around to place it a bit.
