A fun line, with hidden qualities from the ground eye view. The fun, slightly dirty start below the roof warms you up, the roof delivers a punch, but the real fight comes between the roof and the chains. Interesting movement throughout.
Location
Located on the left side of the panel of rock to the left of Gastoned Again. Just to the left of Natty Dread (11b) and to the right of Shorty Bob (10c).
Dirty, chossy, and caked in mud. The upper half, however, is quite good and redeems this from "bomb" status.

I thought this was a very enjoyable climb. Some of the holds down low have a little sand, but they are big and you can motor right past them to the roof. The roof is a fun little boulder problem with good hands and feet. Just be careful clipping the bolt at the lip, you really don't want to blow that clip, since a few small ledges below could be nasty to your foot and ankle. The 'slab' above the roof is thin in spots, but has no shut-down moves to speak of. I think there are a few too many rest scattered about to deserve an 11+ rating.
