Cool route. Did it after dogging my way up king of the swingers the day before. Went up and placed the wires in the crack next to the break before downclimbing back to the rest. The moves up to the second break are superb and juggy but nicely runout. Would be a big fall if you fell at the break before placing gear! fun fun fun!

Pumpy, greasy and sweaty today! Good route though, never harder than 5b, just pumpy. Safe enough to be fun, it deserves more than one star.

Yo yo'd, clean second go. Pump caught me on last section first attempt, took a nice clean fall, lowered off then had it. Lost a wire after falling on it, reckon it'll be in situ til it rots. 2 stars.
