Description:

Harder than it looks...don't get fooled by the grade: this route thins out near the middle and has a few technically demanding moves

2 out of 5 stars Look up!

Should have thought before starting up this sans-rope. Elvis legged the top 5 meters, thank god for an easy descent.

4 out of 5 stars Enjoyable with a twist

Felt harder than 5.8, but maybe it was just my early season lack of technique!

4 out of 5 stars .

After climbing Veils of Illusion, which my friends assured me was a 5.9 and this was only a 5.8, I was shocked to discover how much harder this crack was to get up. Fun climb, though, once I got the hang of crack climbing.

4 out of 5 stars Ascent Note

Some think this is an easy 5.8, others think it is a notorious sandbag. We fall into the latter category.
