Hard start, especially for short people! Use a cheater stone (if need be). I inadvertently stressed my arm for the second clip BECAUSE I did not see a small, positive clipping hold. Look for a small pocket to clip from up and slightly left of the second bolt (maybe 50 cm). The rest of the climb is a fun cruiser (although, watch your pump).
Location
Two climbs to the right of the popular "Sacrificial Lizard" on the Main Wall.
Protection
Well bolted to the extent of being over-bolted, but that's ok.
A really nice climb. The start was difficult as I am 5'5". Jason could clip the 1st bolt from the ground. A stick clip might have been nice to clip the 2nd bolt. The upper section of the climb is not as hard as the lower section.

Steep, bouldery, sustained, and crazy fun until about the fifth bolt, where it becomes 5.9 face for the last 45 feet. Still, the incredible lower section is worth the slog to the anchors.
