"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

Direct NW FaceWith Steph A. We did it in two pitches. I led the two 5.10 pitches as one and recommend same. I also agree it is soft for Yosemite, more like 5.10a. Crack can be wet after a rain which can add a bit of spice. An exposed to ledge slab mantle move near the very top was prob the crux for me.

Very interestingclimb with Michal. He wanted to me to lead the 10.c pitch, then passed the belay and launched into the 10.c territory while thinking that is the 10.a lieback - haha for me, not so much for him.
Great climb (3 pitches in 2 hours), did this when driving thru Tuolomne back from SRA on TC.
Will be back.
