BETA PHOTO: Jesse following Prospector's Daughter, 5.8D (TM).

Description 

In an attempt to climb directly up the main face we discovered this fun route. Start as for Salted but veer right at the base of the slab. Tend up a left facing scoop past some cruxy moves to the base of a crack coming out of the cave. There pop up and right to follow that crack into the cave. Follow the crack up and out of the cave to the Salted rap anchor.

There are some cruxy moves that require some interesting lieback skills. After debating whether the route was 5.8 or 5.9 we put 5.8D on the topo as a joke.

Location 

Right side of the prospect Wall.

Protection 

4 bolts and gear to 2". There is a sweet yellow alien spot in the crux area.
