I thought the beginning boulder problem was excellent, actually, fun moves the whole way up with outstanding clipping holds.

if "au ciel" wasn't above it, this wouldn't really be worth it at all.. and definitely not in the summer..

Thanks for the new bolts, Jeff. Sadly I only got to use the first two because this "soft" 12a completely handed me my ass. WTF!?

Great route for the length, interesting moves and super cool extension. Tie the end of your rope if you do it all as one pitch,
