Technical crux

Fun route. Take some time looking at possibilities for the crux at the last rest, the best hold is concealed from below. PG-13 rating comes from the rather large runout (definite groundfall) between the 2nd and 3rd bolts (or 1st and 2nd, I can't remember now). The 2005 Sharp End guide (Knapp, et. al.) gives it an 11b rating.

Watch the 1/4" stud

Nice route. Bottom 3/4 is around 5.10a-b or less, double crux at the top. There's an old 1/4" bolt stud just below the first bolt - watch you don't slice yourself up on it if you fall early. Horizontal crack between the ?2nd and 3rd bolts (or 1st and 2nd) that takes about a #2 Camalot. Bolts toward the top are a little more run out but well placed for the difficult parts. The dyno can be done static or bypassed to the right. The finish is difficult if you're not relatively tall. Chain anchor. Can be TRed with a 60 m rope. Walk off to the climber's right. Good route.

Old bolt hole makes a shallow mono

The pin seemed solid, it can be backed up with a small cam (~#0 Metolius). Don't fall before the second bolt or you'll probably deck if your belayer's not on it. Very pretty area, not a hard route.
