This is the short, bolted face just down from the chimney where Radlands To Infinity starts. Though this is certainly not a route you'll dream about after you do it, it's a fun, short sport 5.10 for finishing up a day at the Blob. A solid entrance move begins the varied face climbing past a bolt and a small slot for a camming unit. Climbing past the 2nd bolt and off the steep face to the gully is the crux. Cruise up and left to the 2 bolt anchor to set up the top rope.
Quite nice. A finger-sized cam protects the first move. A 9 or easy 10 move past the first bolt gets you to a ledge. You can place a #1/red Camalot in the ledge. One or two micro cams get you to the second bolt, but the cams may not be necessary since it's not that hard. The crux, at the second bolt, is essentially toproped. If you're going to toprope the second, place a #2/gold Camalot before angling left to the anchors.

Quality 40-ft route. Balance is key. Thanks Dan, again! You can also TR a similar-difficulty line between the 5.7 OW to the L & this route from the same anchors.
