Took me a bit to get up especially the last bolt before the top. Bit more polished than I would have liked but there was actually enough for me to hold on to.

Can finish to the left under the roof, but this time finished with a LH dyno to the knarly knob above and to the left of the lower off - nice committing move, even for a 6 footer.
