Pygmy Alien, 5.7+

A local guide told me he thinks this should be upgraded to 5.9 because of some missing rock (just consolidated sand anyway!). Had not done the 2nd pitch in awhile...seemed harder than I remembered, he might be right. Pretty damn sketchy, but worth doing. Many don't have the courage. Most bail after chalking up the traverse out of the hole. No chalk after that. Just a couple of hard moves then you are home free. Remember, no guts, no glory!
