40m. Despite accusations of improved gear placements, this remains a bold lead for an on-sight ascentionist. Traverses out from the belay ledge on Blind Pew to climb the upper half of the amazing blank face.

βeta: The peg is gone and the blind wire placement bomber but would be very hard to find on lead. Chop route without it and reckon its still worth E6 6a/b with it.
