A good face climb that has some long reaches and tricky footwork. The holds are small pockets and cobbles that are just enough to get you purchase. Definitely not an easy route compared to other 9s I've done. This climb is located just around the corner on the right (South-facing wall) as you enter the Dungeon from the North.
Definitely a fun and tricky 5.9. Don't sweat the high first bolt on this one - it's 5.4 or so to get to it. The crux comes immediately after clipping this bolt, and can be solved in two or three different ways.
Perhaps this route just doesn't play to my strengths, but I had a harder time with the crux on this than The Rack. I finally got it when I found the finger pocket, but it definitely didn't come easily. Maybe I'm missing something.
