Route finding is key on this line, because the gear is a little sparse. Find the two bolt anchor on the NW side of the Rock Island, and zig zag up placing gear where you can. Be careful as some of the rock seems a little loose.
Location
To the right of Destroyer on the NW face. Closer to the parking area than the other routes. The anchor bolts are a little bit harder to see than the anchors on Independent. If you take a few steps back towards the river and look hard you should be able to find them.
To lead this you end up taking a rather unpleasant line in order to place protection. A more direct and much more enjoyable route can be taken with the safety of a top rope.
