Description

This is a challenging route with the crux coming between the last two bolts.  Rated. 5.9 with one star in the book, we found better climbing and a harder grade.  The key for clipping the last bolt is to gun for a finger rail just above and to the left. From there you can clip easily, the bolt at about shoulder level.  Unless you're way strong, clipping from below is not a  good option.  Exciting fall if you blow it!

Location

This is not on Capricorn Wall proper but hike around to the west and find this starting on a somewhat chossy slab to better rock on the arete/face above.  Most of the climbing is on the left, with better rock.

Protection

5 bolts with hooks on top.
