Formerly an 8c+ with a large number of artificial holds (~17). After being unrepeated for many years Lucien Martinez removed all but two of the artificial holds and reclimbed the line at 9a+ (or potentially 9b).

The remaining two holds were left because they were natural holds that had been reinforced, so removing them would have meant destroying the natural holds which would be equally artificial.
