I don't usually post hang dogs on here but I wanted to give a heads up to anyone getting ready to try this route. It's HARD! This thing is a 12. The crux is at the top and is at least V4 or V5, and that after some decently tough 5.11- climbing to get to that point. Crux revolves around 6 or 7 moves off of mono's, two finger pockets, and slopey quarter pad or smaller crimps. If this were at Reimers it would have been upgraded years ago but I guess it gets so little traffic out here it's stayed under the radar, or perhaps a hold broke. I don't know. I'm suggesting .12b tentatively as it feels significantly harder than any .12a I've done, but I'll give a final opinion once I send it.
