Redpoint means that all your fingertips are bloody, right? Definitely a redpoint.

First move is very hard. I'm not sure if it counts as a flash since I had already done the stand start. Anyway, I flashed the first move and then finished the route.

FA in miserable wet conditions. It might be 5 or even 4+.

Lots of places to get rests and also lots of places to get stuck. Often at the same time!

Rough start. At least two betas.

Probably Morpho. Quite hard for a shorty.

Really enjoyable footwork.

Not as hard as predicted. There is a pinch beta that makes quick work of the sit start.

Scary top out, but I don't think it's terribly more difficult than the right side.

I never thought I'd say this: Morpho for small people.

I think the downclimb was more fun.

Yeeeeeeeehaw!

FA clocked at 300 seconds with minimal resting.

Super comfortable lay back.

Not the nicest crack in the area, but still a fun move.

Good feet, decent hands.

High foot blew out on the flash attempt. Ouch.

Don't wear your favorite belt buckle for this climb!

Was a bicycle move the intended beta? I don't see those in the wild very often!

Height 165 and had a little room to spare.

Be sure abide the name of the route. No cheating!

This was definitely one of the most fun routes I've ever climbed. I'm going to be sore for a week. Starting beta for shorties is very different from FA video.

Maybe I got lucky? My desperate throw of my right hand actually stuck to something on the first attempt.

Old school tiny crimps and pain. Good times.

Very shouldery. Unconventional/compy beta.

right wall eliminated + water = tricky

Hard to stop the barn door.

At least three ways to do it. Possibly a little morpho.

Considering this took me multiple sessions over 2 years, I am either doing it wrong, or it's not a 5.

I got both feet on the top and then immediately downclimbed.

I was just testing some beta and didn't actually plan to top it out.

Will push you off if you try to force any of the moves.

Ugliest flash ever. Never give up, I guess.

Really fun little traverse. Be sure to bring a brush.

description probably means left crack? I don't see any large crack on the right.

It's a shame the top out is such garbage because the actual climb has such a fun move.

Much less sketchy than it seems upon approach.

I'm not sure what the "real" beta is, but this thing took me 3 sessions to figure out something that worked. Really fun climbing.

still can't get right to left. feels noticeably harder.

Finding holds on the vertical line can be tricky.

fingers are all warmed up now!

So amazingly sketchy!

i used a fist jam to start and two more hand jams later, which seems excessive for a 5.

I'm not sure what the intended beta is, but from a tall standing start, it's only a 5, and from a short person crouch, it's a hard 6a for sure. great movements if you start from below the crux.

sit start

Probably easy-ish for people with long arms.

I love the sketchy footwork in the middle. Just the right amount of terror.

Short people get to use a fun knee bar if they want to.

the top is spicy. The crack needs a good cleaning to climb.

Several different betas available. Crux is 2-3 moves from the start.

I'm in love with the pinch I used on the starting move.

Maybe the conditions have changed since FA? This was probably 5+.

Did it two ways thinking I might have the route wrong, but neither felt like 6b.

I did the rare 'avoid the spiders' eliminate.

Short people won't be able to match the video beta. It took me at least one extra foot move to make the high left foot.

First try I veered left, second time right, and on the third time, I found a path straight through the moss. It is possible under current conditions.

Pretty straight forward. Mantle for short people, maybe not for tall people.

Tiny toe hold to get the whole thing going. The only thing harder than the start is the second move.

Short people can sit start without using the broken rock for feet. First hueco is glorious on the fingers; it makes the whole climb worth it.

Beautiful route for building confidence with new climbers.

Can be done using only hands jams and no holds on the right side of the feature.

The top out hold is jiggling. It doesn't seem ready to break off yet, but another winter and then a heavy climber might break off a big chunk.

Right foothold looks intentionally chipped and perhaps recently. Takes some of the fun out of it.

I assume this is a sit start judging by the grade, so I did it that way.

I found it easier than using the arete!

Extremely technical with one or two powerful moves. Start overhangs 40 degrees, middle overhangs 20 degrees and final hold overhangs 30 degrees.

I probably started a little left of the intended start, but it doesn't change much.

Love the dyno to top out. Totally possible even for shorties (165cm).

With the rating, I assume the route would tend left. Climbed as the topo indicates, the rating should be higher.
