Becoming one of my favorite 5.10a's in the park. Love the thoughtful sequence up to the roof. You can lay back this (when I guide it, it is what folks do on top rope). To lead it, keep yourself balanced and approach it as a stem problem Out right is is a small rail for your right foot. Great stuff. A reachy finger edge in the middle of the lower section is key when you run out of other options and finishes the crux.

I like this pitch quite a bit. Nice thoughtful gear up a finger crack that eases up higher. Crux move is not far off the deck. With Alfred from CA.

fingers
awesome climb, nice mix of fingers/slab at the crux. ended up heading left at the end to a traverse and roof finish by accident, if you go that way use runners, the drag was horrible.

Great 10
Followed Doug. Crux was once again in the first 15ft for me. Awkward move getting into the right leaning finger crack. Then the fun begins. Good fingers for tiny hands that moves into hand crack roof with feet on the face. Really terrific climb.
