Description 

This is a long sustained line on a narrow face with a left facing corner on the right and an arete on the left. The holds are a little slippery with engaging moves on an off vertical face.

The bolts weave back and forth a couple times making the climb feel a little contrived.

There is the stump of a chopped down tree at the base you don't want to fall on before the first bolt.

The route is a bit flooded, but easily climbed/belayed.

Location 

This route is to the right of Right for Life and follows the thin face between the arete and the corner.

Protection 

10 bolts to chains - lower off.
