Description 

spicy for sure. It is not 100 clean. We did it ground up style so the pro is sparse for the fist section. It is enjoyable face climbing that leads into a crack climb higher up. I will be up to clean it a little more. As I was doing the first section I was reminded of hard grit type routes. Don't try this climb unless you are comfortable with 5.8+, it could be an ankle buster or more.

Location 

It is to the right of Era of Tara, The, right next to butt crack. It is the arete there, but you stay on the left of the arete on the steep face. Reach the ledge and follow the crack on your left from there.

Protection 

standard rack. the first piece is a red metolius(or at least that is what i used) on the arete. Then there is none until you get to the ledge and the start the crack up above.
