Description A good route on the easier side of the ratings at this cliff. It ascends a slightly steep wall with smaller than average holds for The Red: more edges and flakes than pockets.
Location The route is to the left of the approach trail, and is the second route left of a small, trapezoidal roof not far from the ground, the first being Wadcutter.
Protection 7 bolts to a 2-bolt anchor.

| This is my absolute favorite line at the Red. Beautiful, sustained, increasingly steep, with a great hand gobbling flake to finish! It doesn't get much better... freaking brilliant. |

| Great climb. Watch out for the giant spider that lives in the flake at the top. |
