Although the rock at the bottom is not very good it gets better and better. Tie off the thread and start liebacking and side-pulling on up. This route is a lot like "Wired", technical with thin pro, but longer.
Protection
This route needs only a selection of wired stoppers, RP's and small cams (up to 2 ") as well as a sling to tie off the thread at the start. Tie off boulders on top for the belay anchor.
In the picture of the cliff you can see Chris Miller (following) and Nathan Fitzhugh on on the right side of the cliff. This was either a First Ascent or possibly the line of "Ranking Carl" (a rare and esoteric 5.8). Picture taken on 3/2/03.

I believe this is the same route listed in the '92 Vogel guide as Unnamed 5.10c (#2241).
