Good for Photos
Sure it was fun, but with all the photos that had been taken of it, I guess I expected more. Great jams the whole climb...don't try to "sport climb" the traverse, it has great jams too.

Fun
Fun hand crack. Not steep at all so a good intro to crack climbing.

Great variation to Thin Ice
Others have mentioned the micro nut placements behind the thin flake and the last "thank god" move of the climb. Well, I fell at that "thank god" move and my pro pulled out of that flake only to be stopped by the one and only bolt on the root...I'd say about a 40 foot whipper. Got back on and finished though. Great sustained climbing!

Great intro to Needles Climbing
The finger crack was absolutely incredible! It's hard to find a crack like that at the grade...Sweet Climb!

Beware of runout on first pitch
Great hands on the first pitch that gets thin in places. The face after the roof is quite runout...about 25 feet. Not a beginner's lead!!!
