Ben and Max have been raving about this line they checked out at Ute Valley the other day. Being a skeptic of anything Ben Snyder finds cool and hesitant to spend an afternoon at Ute Valley (substitute here any number of other Crumblewood-esk spots) it took some convincing. I ended up heading over there with Tim today after class to meet up with Nick, Ander, and Max. The moves are of a very high caliber, reminisant of some of the cooler Hueco roof climbs, but the poor rock quality and proximity to the ground bring the overall quality of this climb down. I wandered off for a bit but got drawn back in as Nick dialed the moves in and started coming very close. Nick nabbed the first ascent, calling it Nick of Time (V6), and shortly after I got the second ascent. A little bit later, Ander managed the third.
