This is an amazingly good crack. The problem is that some guys with bad jamming technique will feel as if it's impossible. Only two good fist jams are needed to go up, then get out the offwidth and finish easily to the top!

Well I thought it stiff in the grade 5a. To climb this you'll need to be pretty good at jamming and offwidth thrutching techniques. I can normally only onsight (TR) Southern Sandstone to 5b, so I very much doubt it can be harder than this. Bit of a fist muncher.
