Description 

Step left from the block to nice holds or contrive your way up from the bottom. Follow a thin crack with great locks on the right and a rail with big holds on the left until the rail fades. Make an insecure move to easier climbing. This route is very enjoyable but not as sustained or pumpy as Jerry Brown.


Location 

This route starts on a block a few feet right of Captain Kronos and ascends an obvious rail and thin crack. Walk off quickly and easily southeast.


Protection 

Pro is great on this route and easy to place. Small to medium aliens work great from the start through the crux, supplemented with a light rack of nuts and cams to 3". Gear anchor 0.5" to 2" cams.

The name we gave this was actually Brownies In Motion, as I recall. Steve's idea I think. Brownian Motion is further down and right.

The crux for me was going from the vertical crack with the juggy sidepulls out left onto where the angle lets off. Felt much easier than 5.10b.
