Description 

A local classic that starts just left of Suspended Animation (5.12a) by climbing a bouldery face (5.11) past a bolt to a ledge. Wander upwards past two more bolts until just below a small overhang/overlap. The moves past the next bolt are excellent and involve a long reach/dyno to a distant edge and then moving up to a delicate and somewhat heady stand-up move with holds that seem to face the wrong way. The final moves to the top are enjoyable and largely uneventful.

Suberb moves on this climb that requires a number of techniques to succeed. This seems a tad bit harder than it's neighbors to the right, hence the split grade.

Originally this route shared the start with Suspended Animation, but now features a two bolt independent start slightly left that takes you directly up to the third bolt.
