Description 

Just right of Light Sabre (5.10b) is this great mixed line. Start with a nice thin hand/hand crack which peters out and leads past a bolt a horizontal crack. Above, bolts protect traversing moves up and right along a patina rail which ends and a few frictiony moves lead to anchors.


Protection 

4 bolts (3/8"), gear to 2.5", anchors (3/8")

Climbing above each of the four bolts consists of difficult moves. Bolt #1 protects 5.11 face climbing. Bolts #2 and #3 protect powerful moves over a small roof onto a rail (5.12). Stepping above the rail requires a committing and balancy 5.11 face move to reach the last bolt. Bolt #4 protects more 5.11 face climbing. Whew!! 3 out of 5 stars.
