Description 

The notably overhung climb located right of the easily-recognized Wampum, which ascends the water stained slight dihedral. Climb up a steep face with slick feet to the first bolt just beneath the roof, then pull the roof and continue up past another 3 bolts on easier climbing.


Protection 

4 bolts to a 2 bolt anchor. The first clip is pretty far off the ground, so a crash pad or something would be nice.

You're pretty much done once you get to the first bolt, so stick clip this bolt to avoid groudnfall, or just don't fall until you're clipped. The runway for a long fall is pretty good, but make sure that your belayer is ready to catch you.

This is not a good route to have someone who believes in drinking, smoking and lead belaying simultaneously belaying you.
