Is the flat hold not on the left (facing the crag)? Thought the e2 5c/6a grade works well for this one. And one star is fair. Couple of loose(ish) blocks to your left as you go up below the buldge. Plenty of good gear (tested!!) and an prickley belay!!!

This is E2 6a in the guide so am assuming that this is a typo unless someone else has downgraded it? Well deserving of the star.

This should be E2 6a. Great route pumpy with a hard crux section. Harder and more sustained than the wurlitzer.
