I was curious about the ratings of too many puppies out at left flank...I know it's a 12a but had been told that its more like a 12c because several holds had flaked off. I more or less wanted a general concensus of what other people who had done this climb thought that it was rated in its current state.

12a, but not your typical RRG 12a.

It definitely felt harder than the other 12a's I've been on at the Red. The top part spit me off. But, the consensus says 12a so it must be a 12a.

I would agree that it is .12a. Most people who I've heard claim it is harder are the kind of guys that are good at overhanging thug hauls like Twinkie, etc. and not technical routes. I think the climbing is unique for the red, but the moves are no harder than .12a

why has the "stiff rating" been lost with most people?

Its been 12a for the longest time, what seems to be the problem. It seems like some people are getting weaker, and they dont want to admit they cant climb 12a. Anyways its just a number..
