Description

This route is up near the far left side of Plotinus Wall. It can take gear from small to fist sized here and there, with some poor rock and flaring placements causing an occasional runout. The route climbs just right of Bedtime Story, out a handcrack through a bulge, uncomfortably close to a small evergreen, then up the wall of cracks, flares and face holds towards the top. The anchors of Bedtime Story are a good cop-out alternative to ending up on top with a long walk back to the base. Over time, this route might get more traffic and clean up, but for now it is blah... and a dirty blah... at that.

Protection

Most of this route can be toproped after a lead of '

Bedtime Story

', that is, if you don't mind fighting with the tree near the bottom. You shouldn't, if you are going to climb this rather bland, and dirty route.
