Is this a 5.9 spot? It looks easier on this photo. Can't wait to climb it!

Misha - Not only is this 5.9, but it's the first 5.9 climbed in the US. I think this photo is of one of the easier moves on the second pitch. Just out of the picture is a more difficult section. Here's some more info on this route:

This is near the top of the first pitch. The alcove is just above the flake the climber is sidepulling.

The first 5.9 section is just below the flake. The flake itself is pretty easy.
