Pugnacious

Start out of the Refrigerator cleft with good edges and sidepulls past the 1st bolt, layback a large flake to make the reachy 2nd clip, and put on your game face...the bulk of the climb involves very sequential weaving up edges and small pockets out the steep shield, with only a couple of shakes on the isolated jugs...there are a lot of lateral moves, with a focus on power endurance. At the last bolt, move left on better pockets and jugs onto the slab, step up to a stance with a chert jug and the anchors.

This completes the Refrigerator Cleft hat trick of .12 routes. It is a steeper, more bouldery version of Second Wind, although not quite as good. The climb does weave back and forth a bit, straying left for a moment close to Second Wind; seek out the best features to make this go at the grade.

Between Refrigerator Chimney and Second Wind.
