Possibly the blue moon / spring conjunction, original belayer, sexy slinky new rope, cold crisp temps, all helped but the slightly damp lower crux and semi-ripped tips from the warm-up, meaning he'd only get one shot ultimately led to the perfect rhythm and he got through the final moves to the ledge and topped out . . .
After whooping and hollering he finally got to jump off from the ledge instead of falling from a foot or two below it as he had countless times previously, I think it's safe to say he was STOKED!!! . . .
Maybe 32 - probably the hardest and best trad route he's done, it's the modern day hardman equivalent of the old school 23's - it's as hard as it is and needs some repeats to confirm it . . .
You should at least try the half-pitch variant 'Culled ya' Sack' to the half-way ledgelet where you can lower of a horn with a retrievable sling, it's more like classic really hard 23 . . .

Pretty stoked that Douglas has taken over the cafe and I was able to go skiing and score great snow and weather.
