| Great route! 5.9 lieback felt a tad bit harder than short 10b section. Awesome exposure on the last few pitches!!! | |

| - My partner and I climbed the route in 8 long pitches with a 60m(I led the odd pitches). The pitch description on the route page is right on. We combined pitch 7 and 8. - To dodge the heat we started the approach around 5pm. Darkness fell while my partner was building the second anchor. - We bivied on the small ledges near the second station. At first light, I rapped down and dropped our bivy gear and haul line then reclimbed the crux pitch. It was much more enjoyable during daylight hours and when I wasn't carrying my overnight pack. - The 5.9 lieback and off-width on our 6th pitch felt hard (linked 8th and 9th pitch of the Reid guide). This whole pitch is fairly technical and well sustained. - Our 7th pitch (start of 10th pitch of Reid guide) makes a sharp traverse to the right then drops and keeps going right another 10 feet before ascending. Use long runners and run it out, otherwise break it in two as described in most topos. We had to simul so I could reach the next belay ledge. | |

| too bad it follows a waterfall, since the only downside is the polished rock on the upper 2/3 of the route | |

| Climbed with Tom Fralich. Almost every pitch was interesting. I found the crux a bit trickier than expected but enjoyed the whole day. | |
