Description 

Start at the obvious right-facing arch, climb halfway up Left Corner and then step left to a blank section protected by a single bolt. The crux is clipping the bolt and then delicately switching hand holds. If leading, the safest and easiest way to protect the crux is to place gear below and right of the bolt (a small nut fits a slot only a few feet below and right of the bolt), then down-climb a bit and approach the bolt from below and left. Inconspicuous hand holds occur just left of the bolt (there are none to the right), leading to buckets above. The anchor is shared with Left Corner.


Protection 

1 quick draw for the bolt, 1 set of cams and 1 set of nuts up to 2 inches
