Peter Dillon at the crux bulge. Traverse right to...
Description
The route just left of Period Piece, Period Epic is a nice little route which has a few options. For the 5.9 climbing move left into a corner at 20 feet up and then move right at about 35 feet up. This will lead to clipping the last bolt back to the left when you have it at about knee height. If you go straight up between the last couple bolts it raises the difficulty to 5.10 with a tricky clip. If someone is planning to follow the route via the 5.9 terrain, remove the draws first to avoid a pendulum fall. Enjoy!

Does anyone know the route between Period Piece and Period Epic? It felt like a long (9 bolts or so) 5.8 or 5.9ish. It's not listed on MountainProject or in the "Shelf Road Rock" guide book. Just curious.
The book says 5 bolts, but we only found 4 on the route and it didn't seem run out.

Dan, I don't think there's a route between these?
Follow the bolts for a solid 10a crux on sharp pockets. 9ish if you bail right. There is a bolt above the bulge which you can't see from the ground which is an awkward clip if you bail right.
