βeta: What a route, absolutely 3 star in my opinion and deserves more popularity. Definitely a well kept secret. Completely nails for the grade but brilliant climbing in a stunning location. If you’re short the run out will be a lot more serious at the top - be careful, as might be a ground fall unless your belayer is talented. Don’t be put off, this should be a classic and the crux is 100% whipable. Safe crux but certainly closer to 6b and the huge run out makes it more E5 - especially if you can’t reach the final pocket/ cannon hole from the mantle. Would recommend, but a bit under graded. | ||
