Description Good climbing on fairly clean rock. Will clean up with more ascents. The crux is moving from the corner to the face/arete. Climb up to the first bolt and make a weird move reaching the second bolt, climb past the bolt and move left into the corner passing the third and fourth bolt, make a cool move left to the arete/face and climb up the face on good holds slinging a horn for protection to the anchor.
Location The first route on the left side of the wall.
Protection Six clips, long sling (for horn) to a two bolt anchor.

| Not as clean or as nice as the routes on the main wall. While the climbing is OK, it lacks the distinct and singular line that make a great route great. |

| The sling for the horn is not necessary. |

| This climb gave me the feeling that it was meant to be 10a, but someone took all the good holds and faced them the wrong direction. |

| The move onto the face is a bit tricky and the poor feet make the next clip interesting. |

| I did not enjoy this route very much. I agree with Cribbs.
The moves on this route were awkward. I'm all for technical routes, but this route was just unpleasant.
The only redeeming feature of this route was when I decided to run out the last bit by ignoring the clip, staying on the original face, and hitting up the high-foot layback in the crack.
Try the route to the right of this one. Much better. |

| I liked this line. Compared to other 10a's in the canyon it felt harder. But I'd stick with 10a for the rating. |
