BETA PHOTO: Zoom in to see top bolt just beneath the bomber ju...


Description 

This fun route starts in a crack just a few feet right of the Chimney. Take this up to a right slanting crack and traverse over to gain a jug and stand up. From here, follow the arching corner of the rock, liebacking to the right. The crux comes here, afterwhich a super bomber-big jug comes up, where one can do an ultra-photogenic one-handed hang. Easy mantel of the top. Highly recommended.


Protection 

TR or a couple of bolts near the top for a lead. The bolt down low is for a right moving varaition at 5.11b.
