Sorry, gotta brag on the guy!!
Tony was really psyched to do it. He sent it on the second go... like it was a 5.6...smooth as silk! But he tells me it's the hardest trad route he's ever done...maybe a 5.12c?? He said it's definately 4 stars although it has a little choss at the start.
It's the finger crack that's visible in the guide book photo (page 89, maybe?). It takes bomber gear and tops out.
Hoping someone will go out and climb it to confirm the grade and quality if it hasn't already been done. He can't find any info about it anywhere.
