work on this one - I just noticed it. Always meant to get down and climb it but something always got in the way. Friends of mine have said the same as you - that the second pitch felt more like 5.10a or so.
Good pro, eh? That's sweet - usually Sedona's not generally known for its good pro! I'll have to try it sometime... after I rehab my 2nd separated shoulder, that is. Funny how the older you get the longer they take to get better.....

I hear you and unfortunately have to agree :(
Definitely should do this one - real fun route & handsome desert tower!
I don't have all the technical jargon down yet, but when you're
talking about "the move across the top," are you talking about the
so-called "Leap Of Faith" where you have to sling your body across
the chasm that separates the two "ears?" Please click.

Re: NiceThank you very much.
5.9 vs. 5.10a.....I thought it felt like a real 5.10 but I suck :)
Don't let that stop you - the pro on this section is all bomber. It's the move across at the top that took me a while...
