not convinced this is the same route. found the crux hard this time, and didnt do it cleanly, but if its the same route i found it absolutely fine the previous time, which seems a bit odd...

Really nice line going over the Tombstone engraved on the wall. Some technical moves challenged me, but always felt on top of it, even at height. Loved it.
