Nice for slab lovers
Great climb with two distinct cruxs. You need to like balancy reachy moves for this one!

Hang Dog ascent by:
One tough move
This climb has one hard balancy, mantley move. If you're short, you're in for some really hard times on this one.

Red Point ascent by:
balancy leg presses
A couple of hard moves for the height challenged. A short route that is worthwhile.

Second ascent by:
slabulous balance party
You look at this and think it looks easy from the ground AND the business is over after the first couple bolts. If you did so, you'd be mistaken. Tricky and technical with the actual crux being around the 3rd or 4th bolt (I don't remember, but you'll know soon enough). Well placed bolts though so the falls are all quite safe. Definitely worth a burn, but you may be surprised by how tricky this is for 10b. Get ready for no-hands or tiny-hands and a lot of careful balance work. Height might be a factor here too.
