Description 

A one move wonder, but the rest of the climbing is pretty fun too.

To locate this route, hike up the Sand Gulch Canyon to the Freefrom Wall. At the left end of the wall is a yawning chimney with red home made hangers. This is "Barney (5.9)".

Just to the right of this route is a bolted line that goes through a funky pod. This route is Bad Brains.

The crux comes on this one real early. With an open mind and some creativity it goes somewhat easily (for the grade). After you have solved the crux, continue upwards on fun moves that are probably 5.9ish. Keep heading up and slightly right to the anchors on "Helter Skelter".

Protection 

6 bolts to "Helter Skelter" anchors.
