Description Face climb to the right of Tombstone Terror. One of the best sport routes at the leap. Clean, steep and well protected. If follows a series of flakes, small edges and pinches up a nearly overhanging white wall. This route's FA was originally done with a couple bolts and pins. Yikes!

| Definitely a great route with unique moves. Well protected and fun!
Used to be 11a in the old white guide, could be harder if you are shorter... |

| Wow! Powerful moves on steep rock. .11a? I bet this would be rated harder at some climbing areas... |

| Either harder than .11a or very sustained .11a (or both), I can't tell. Either way, this is has got to be the finest face climb that I've done at the leap.
First 20 feet are unprotected with a bad landing. Once you clip the first bolt, the business starts and continues until you start dike hopping 3/4 of the way up the route. Crux is everything in between and involves some powerful flake pulling, mantling, liebacking and most importantly... lots of endurance. |

| Boothill is the graveyard in Tombstone AZ, named such because Tombstone was a town 'where men died with their boots on.' |
