Description 

Per ST- "Sustained, balancy, and powerful". Unique and improbable movement. 5.11 climbing at third bolt. Crux move at fourth bolt requires dynamic movement to a gaston finger lock in horizontal roof crack. 5.10 to the chains.


Location 

Starts off big shelf to the left of Steppin' Stone. Goes through obvious bulge and roof combo. Finishes on same anchor as Steppin' Stone.


Protection 

6 bolts with optional .6-1" gear in roof crack. Can clip first bolt by going high on starting shelf- then can continue from there of step back down to start climbing directly beneath the bolt.
