Description 

This excellent steep sport route is located to the right of Sideburn. Make a series of steep technical face moves (12c) to a large jug where you can get a rest. Above, power out the overhanging "wave-like" wall/roof (crux).


Protection 

9 bolts; 2 bolt anchor.

Please note that this formation gets lots of sun and is sheltered from the wind. It is best done on cooler days.

This 70 ft route is a power-endurance route, taking Leavitt just under two weeks to put together. There is 40 ft of the described 12c climbing enroute to the crux which involves a series of dynos. The aforementioned jug, allows one to shake out but not totally recover. Expect well over an hour approach for this beauty.
