Description 

This route is on the West Face of Der Zerkle, far right side. Boulder the unprotected direct start to the business, or more easily traverse in from the left. The hard part starts with the first clip and continues to the anchor. Some will argue that this route is 12a. No argument from me. New anchor bolts have been installed.


Protection 

3 protection bolts.

Compared to Android Powerpack (just down the way on Square Rock) this thing felt waaay harder than .11d, just thought I'd encourage people to scope this thing out before assuming it would be easy (like I did, even after I'd hangdogged all the moves months ago). Also, the second bolt is in a crappy place. You either have to clip it from a heinous lieback, or just skip it.
