Starts just left of the large left-facing corner of Cellulite District. Follow discontinuous cracks with a few brushy remnants. Rick Thompson's 2001 guide rates the route 5.9+, but its fairly sustained nature may justify the 5.10a listed in the photo.
The rock somehow feels dusty, and lacks the crisp feel of many Shelf routes. An OK route with some interesting moves.
I overlooked this route for quite some time as it is easy to walk past, It has some polished rock about a third of the way up that makes you consider a key foot as questionable - given the slippery feel. I really like the moves and enjoyed the position the route offers throughout the upper half. More thoughtful than it would first appear. Don't pass it up...great for the grade. -JM
