Climber Style Ascent Date Suggested Grade
First ascent.

The start hold broke making the problem significantly harder.

Post-break FA. The Jade of Lincoln! Start hold almost completely broke off, forcing a different starting hand beta involving a right hand one finger full crimp on a tiny flat hold. The first move is now a dynamic throw into a half pad left hand 2/3 finger mini pinch. The move felt much harder than the Jade move and is certainly one of the hardest moves I’ve ever done. Probably one move v13 into v11. Thinking V14/15 [3]
