Description
The premiere route on the wall, this stellar line is classic Josh climbing with mostly face climbing protected by gear.
The moves aren't that difficult, but the trick is hanging out long enough to wiggle the gear in. A pin protects the lower crux, although there is another tricky section just below the top, especially if pumped.
