Pitch one: Start 10 feet right of Face Race on the other side of a block. Start up the steep wall moving up and right past two bolts to easier climbing. Continue up and right to an awkward slot with two bolts (5.8+). After the slot move back left past one more bolt to a ledge with a 2-bolt anchor.
Pitch two: Finish with the face up and left past two bolts (5.8) to a 2-bolt anchor.
Location
Right side of the wall between a big block and an outcropping.
Protection
8 bolts, two 2-bolt anchors.

I added this route with the others, but currently the bottom 3 bolts are not installed and this has not been led yet. I should have it completed the first good weather day I can get up the canyon. Allen
Led this route, don't understand why there are two pitches. You can easily bypass the first anchors without rope drag. The climb is 5.7 with a 10b crux bulge on the first bolt???? The bolts are sometimes out of view. I wouldn't say this is the best of Allen's Work. L.O.L.
Yea Scott, I give it half a star. I found the slot at the 4th bolt fun though, the rock deceivingly drops away for exposure there. 10b start? Maybe I'm getting strong in my old age but found this significantly easier than otherworld. enjoy, Al
