Height
6–10 m
First branch
4 m+
Trunk girth
90–120 cm

This is way, way, way too difficult for me, but I think if you're an accomplished boulderer, then you should be able to get up to that first branch. From there, it's smooth sailing, and you can get super, super high! Man, that first part where you have to sort of push yourself against these parts of the wall is quite very difficult.
