UKC
3 pitches. This went up the winter start of Yen, then up the steep crack to the right instead of following it's second pitch. We then finished straight up. The second pitch was the crux and went at VI,6. Good sustained climbing at the grade, thin feet and hooks to start up the steepest section, then the hooks improved and good gear throughout.
