It looks hairy but fun.

Re: Fantastic

The Homestretch was my first experience climbing with sustained exposure! There are a few exposed moves on the Keyhole Route before the Homestretch but nothing sustained. The first time I went up this I remember being nervous. The second time wasn't a big deal.

It actually isn't as bad as it looks. There are good holds up that crack for the hands and feet all the way to the summit.
