Great Route
Hard opening pull, then a couple more tricky moves. Kind of exciting finish.

Sometime last fall.
Just before halloween last fall. Love the route just like I love Mary's Cookies. Puts Big Star next in line along with the other 12's on the wall. Very technical. I've seen done and myself done the bottom crux in a few different ways.

ascent note
Definitely much easier after the first 2 bolts but still not over by any means.
