Description:
Consider stick clipping the 1st bolt. Good holds make for a safe lead without stick clip, if nothing goes wrong. If something goes wrong, the landing is not great and you risk falling into the pit and pulling your belayer with you. Herman Munster is more physical at 5.9+; Grendel is trickier, reachy, and 5.9 for tall people.
