3 out of 5 stars PG

I'd give it a PG. Balancy crux that is protectable but not in that warm fuzzy way one would like. One of my first trad leads and would not get on it again for a long time.

Finished this after backing off it on lead last year; definitely spicey, with very balancy moves.

Very wet at the bottom on the day I was there. Easier to go up towards the right than the left.
