Description 

Well protected and fun climbing - a long line with many nice pockets along the way. Some nice bulges up higher. A great route to get the climbing flow going.


Location 

On the right side of the Killer Cave and slightly uphill is a ledge with a large juniper. Several 5.11 and 5.10 routes and Action Candy ascend the wall here. Action Candy is the furthest right line.


Protection 

15-16 bolts to anchors.

Juggy and easier near the top, one could skip a bolt or two.

a great route, rated 10a in the current guidebook, and definitely feels that way. balancy climbing to the first bulge, where it gets a little trickier. dont forget some shitty pockets might turn into bomber underclings.

Seems like pretty sustained 10/10a moves the whole way up. Great challenge for climbers breaking into the grade, or warmup for harder stuff.
