Description 

Located on the southwest face of Olympic Dome, down a bit from Bloodline and just right of a large parallel chimmney system (Matt Biondi Chimney).

An engaging route with technical moves on superb black varnish. The finish crosses over the chimney and is airy and pumpy, but somewhat contrived. 4 out of 5 stars.


Protection 

6 Bolts, a few small/medium cams. Two bolt anchor/rap with webbing/single rap ring.

I remember this climb being sustained to the top with the technical crux midway on the face. The finish on the overhanging block felt like 10+. Begin left of "Don't Bosch Me Around" for a more direct start.

Excellent Route. It felt much harder than 11a.
