Okay maybe this will lure him out from the shadows.....

Runouts aren't that bad although it is steeper than SnB.  There's the first bolt low down placed a decade after, then two Beyer bolts (crappy originals), and an exciting bit to the next bolt, then another exciting bit to the fifth.  Easy up to the crux.  Crux overhang is not bad although you are above the bolt a ways when you grab the bomber edge.  Clean fall if you fall and provided the 26 year old split shaft with homemade angle iron hanger holds.  The two bolts below are not very good (one star drvyn, the other a hardware store useless red head).  I've been meaning some year to pull the crux bolt and replace with a stainless 1/2".

I was told about a fall on it...pretty good one.

Hmm I remember my buddy on I think his first outside lead getting on this and taking three consecutive 25+ ft falls on that janky bolt...
