3 out of 5 stars hard bottom part

Definitely felt strenuous at the bottom perhaps like a 5.9 if sticking to just the finger crack.
Was the hardest of all the Guide Cracks.

4 out of 5 stars Nice finger crack training

Nice, sustained 5.8 finger crack at the bottom if you do not cheat with stemming. I repeated it in 6/2009.

3 out of 5 stars With Mike C and Unter

TR'd after leading the one to the left of this. Insecure fingers at the bottom. Felt like the hardest of all the climbs on this wall, probably more like 5.9 at the bottom, in my book. Shares awkward anchors with #1. Takes concentration to keep from "cheating" by stemming at the bottom.
