Description 

Climb up the featured arete to a two bolt anchor. Cool moves, good holds, pretty vertical and so slightly pumpy.


Protection 

Three quickdraws, dress the bolted anchor to taste.

Be careful of the flake on the arete at the bottom of the route. It is dangerously loose and about to come off. Handle this crucial route component with care.

The 20' above the flake is secure and enjoyable. Clipping the 3rd bolt is kinda heads up.

My belayer said the flake was moving when I pulled on it. Not much can be done to avoid it unless you start off-route to the left of the arete. I will feel sorry for the last person who gets to climb the flake.
