Description 

A one move wonder. Instead of going over the roof immediatly, follow beneath it on the overly facile climbing until you can clip the second bolt. Clip it, then up and over the roof. Fun move, boring climb.


Protection 

2 bolts to the same 2 bolt anchor as Step To The Left. Very runout climbing until you get to the roof. Rope drag will be an even bigger problem than on Stop To The Left

This variation of "Step to the Left" has long been referred to as "Death to the right." Bring some cams. Many of the Far Side routes were established by local climber Ken Stanton in the mid '80s.
