Im not sure of the name, however I climbed it over a year ago and it was somewhere in the low 11 range. The bottom half of the climb is really dirty and I would not recommend it.

I can never remember the name of that route. I think the rating is 11b/c. PM tripperjm. He'll know the name.

I thought the climb was quite good.. I thought it was more 11c/d 'ish though.. it is overhanging and has a hard clip or two, with some interesting sequences.

It is sport climbing afterall.
How about we settle with "11 I still can't climb it"

Sure. As long as you're speaking for yourself, of course. ;)

I initially thought it was a 5.6 or 7 because the routes in that sport climbing guide didn't quite line up. Since then I've left 4 or 5 bail biners on it :(
