Description
A superb compression test-piece with incredible movement. Split grade is given for two variations
Matt originally climbed the route by compressing the double arête feature with left hand on a blocky side-pull, right on a small triangle side-pull, and a knee bar.
The other, slightly harder version starts matched on a blocky ledge on the right arête. Then climbs up a few feet before transitioning to the compression section and topping out. This way adds a few VERY high quality moves and makes the crux slightly harder, but less reachy. It's also more congruent with the sit start.
Location
Right side of the Death Star outcrop.
