Description 

Starting 15' down and left from Effigy Too is this engaging mixed route.

A single bolt 15' up marks this route, which wanders upward past the bolt and several horizontals to the top. The pro is decent as the crux is just above the bolt and the climbing above although sporty is easier.

If not up to leading this route it is easily toproped from the anchor for Effigy Too.


Protection 

Bolt (3/8") and small to medium cams. Gear belay and walk off climber's left (down a chimney/gully).

Pretty tough for 10a? Anyone else done this?

Unfortunately you don't get to increase the difficulty rating for "mental difficulty".

The route is a bit stiff for 10a (I gave it a split 10a/b) rating in the new guide, but hardly any harder. As a lead it gets an R rating, but as Murf pointed out, that doesn't change the difficulty of the moves.

It seems 5.10B/C to me.
