Description 

Stellar route in the middle of the 12 wall. Between Steelworker and Big Money Grip. Takes an impressive overhanging line through jugs to a marginal rest, maybe catch a bad kneebar before charging into the crux section then into a steep pumping jug/edge haul to the anchors.

Location 

Up the stairs past the climber's cabin, take a left before you hit the 11 wall and continue on the trail to the 12 wall. Front and center.

Protection 

8 bolts to chains. If you're lucky (like we were) there might be fixed draws.
