2 out of 5 stars Way hard for it's grade

Back in 1994 it was called: The Popes On A Date
This thing is ridiculously hard.
Unbelieveable slab at bottom and top. Felt like 5.12. MAJOR rope drag! Needed long runners on every bolt. 2 Ropes to rap.
I made the mistake of coming back to this route in 1998 and doing it again. Yuk, never again!
