JOhn W lead this and I followed
He protected the crux with two brassies, very well seated. He did a great job on this climb. I found it thin and hard. It was particularly hard to clean the brassies, as he sat on both placements. Once you reach the pin the climb is over.

Fun and sequency
Great fun. This is very sequency for the first two-three moves, then it backs way down.

how's your fingertip sidepull strength?
pretty darn skimpy for me, face holds right were tempting, killed the layback opportunity to get up to safer ground though. sort of like a V3 problem10-15 feet up, then easy ground with pro. just don't get careless and relax TOO much with the transition to easy climbing
