The Castle LS, 7C+
Starts on an undercut and a crimp immediately below The Castle. This was originally called just "The Castle", but everyone who ticked the route started from the higher holds. Note also that the starting holds on this route have broken several times since the FA, so we're a bit unsure about the grade.

Hard to grade since so many holds broke off/changed since FA and Magnus did it.

Almost can't believe I finally sent this today. It's at least two grades harder than the high start, imo. Took me several hundred more attempts :D
