Fun!
I led the first pitch a long time ago but never did the second. Finally got to it. It's short but pretty good.

Very interesting and thoughtful
Not burly, but very different from most gunks climbs. We ran it in a single pitch, I thought it was rather contrived traversing right then traversing back left. Nice climb. Seemed much harder than an 8.

Um, what?
P1 is a lot harder than 5.8. P2 is no gimme either, but it was fun. I led P2 clean but hung on P1.
I put an R rating because if one blows the opening moves then getting hurt is very real possibility due to the nasty landing. I know of one belayor who broke her wrist spotting this section.
