Lizard Warrior is a rad face climb. Well-spaced bolts and thin climbing on razor edges. It starts just right of Front lines (10d) and takes a line straight up past six bolts to chains. The crux comes at the fourth? bolt and forges through a very blank headwall. Very, very high quality, face climbing.

This route is all bolts, I did however enjoy placing a #1 Friend in the horizontal at the start, but I am a big chicken.
This is a fun sport route chock full of creative moves on interesting holds. Definitely a classic.

This route actually has a direct 5.11 start. As described above you have to skip the first bolt, which protects the hard thin move, by climbing in from the right (which is why the friend placement is recommended).
I thought this was the least enjoyable of the four routes we did at Combat that day. Good moves, but the route is marred by lots of back-and-forth traversing and rest ledges. I just can't see it as a four-star route.
