Wow! That's incredible! You're probably the only one who's ever been on it and coming back for more. What weekend did you get on it? What a pile of useless information to go in a guidebook dickwad. The least you could do is post when you're going back, so we could avoid you.

This route made me climb 6 inches taller than I am. Complete classic.

Moves felt scrunchy, probably 12d if your short. Awesome route no matter what.

What's the original line on the cruxy bit up to the break at the last bolt? Trending further right yields a big slot jug amongst all the small scoops.
