Description 

This is the left bolted route on a large blank face at the base of the Northwest Face of Cyclops next or left to The Eye. Thin face moves follow a "red line" past a bolt to an incut/mantel that lead to another bolt. The moves out from this are the crux. Faces the road. Continuous and hard.

Isn't this a Woodward lead that had two bolts? As is typical of many of his routes, it was supposed to be super spooky. Would seem to me a bolt was added?

Murf, I double checked my work, and you are correct. There are only two widely spaced bolts on this route. Thanks

Yes. Fawcett originally top-roped the route. It was subsequently led. The FA info for the route does state - FA, Ron Fawcett, TR.
