That is such a quality route. I need to go back and do it again. On my first try, I had led pitch #4 and right at the end of the strenuous lie backing, my hands popped. I flew out and off, blew the small tcu I put about 7 feet above the last bolt and fell a total of about 25 feet. Somewhere on the way, I smashed my left elbow on a small ledge / hold / something. It swelled up to the size of a baseball and my whole arm was black and purple for weeks.
I don't think I broke anything. Most of the swelling went away within a week, and it didn't hurt. Only now 2 months later is the last of the fluid receding.
So, I need to go back and get revenge!
