Description

Boudery moves on thin but positive edges start things off, and lead to a crux section moving past the 2nd bolt. Once past the crux, the holds increase in size and the angle kicks back to a slab for a short section before finishing on vertical jugs.

Great moves on excellent rock make this a popular climb on a popular wall.

  • Orignally done with only two bolts (the second and third) and no anchors, it was later retro-bolted which greatly boosted it's popularity.

Location

This, one of the first lines on the wall is located on the left side of the east face and is the second bolted route from the left; it lies about 15' right of
