Description:
Follows a crack to a ledge, to a flake, to pockets and cobwebs. Start a bit difficult for short folk. Harder at the bottom and through the middle. Top is cake.

Tough start.
Tough for the grade, saw it done multiple different ways. The rest is good.

Meh
Hard start, gets easier. Wouldn't recommend as a warm up.
