looks like a rather challenging climb. Is that a top rope route?

No, the anchors are midway up (another 30 feet from where the rope is hanging), so it has to be led. It's been a long-term project of a friend of mine; this past weekend he came off right where the last visible bolt/quickdraw is, right at the end of the difficult stuff.
