Description 

This route is located on the west face of Beaver Boulder. 3 fixed heads lead to the first bolt, then a another head and a rivet lead to the second bolt, followed by about 10 more moves off fixed heads. The last 5 or so moves are on micro nuts, RP's are very helpful. Most of the fixed heads seem pretty sketchy and there is a definite potential for a ground fall onto the rock below.

If you do the route solo, your bottom anchor isn't that great, just a cordlette slung around the rock at the bottom, so the best option is to put a add clove hitch on a locker and attach it to the second bolt when you get there.


Protection 

As of 2/03 there were 15 fixed heads, so if you should probably bring some along just in case. Micro nuts are needed for the last 15 feet.
