The Skinny! 

Another new addition to the left side of Creekside, or as I like to call it the "binge wall."

Start up on solid black rock on crisp edges and crimpers passing 3 bolts (low 10). Rest at a stance clip another bolt make a couple tenuous mid 11 moves to a good flat jug out right; clip. Adjust your hands, smear your feet and deadpoint/ dyno to a sloper. Make a tough clip from the sloper, make another 11ish move and finish on fun moderate climbing to the anchor of Rumplemintz.

This is essentially a harder, and more direct version of Rumplemintz. It is convienient to climb Rumplemintz and hang the draws on 100 proof on your way down.

As of now, it's not a bad idea for the belayer to wear a brain bucket (some small flakes hear and there), but will clean up very nice with traffic. The route took very little cleaning as most of it is on solid black rock.


Protection 

8 bolts + 2 bolt anchor.


Where you at? 

This route is located inbetween Rumplemintz and the regular start to Brennivin. Approach via Shenanigans, or wade across the creek in low water.
