second pitch is classic
great climb mostly short pitches. Makes sense to run 2nd and 3rd as one pitch. The slab up to is.... slab. Soft for the grade.

great 5.10 multipitch
one of my favorite short multis, especially the first 3 pitches, the direct slab finish is a lot harder, 10d

Great
I led pitches 2, and 4. I did the 10d slab variation for pitch 4. I did fall at the crux so technically I didn't onsight the route, but since this is just a variation, I still listed it as an onsight. WHatever! ;)
