Description 

Short but sweet. The start is hard for any 9, but it eases up quickly into a nice, chill corner. Hit the ledge and traverse right into the hand crack that leads to the chain anchor. Super fun and varied. Ken Trout did the second ascent and gave me the idea for the name because while cleaning it just prior to the first ascent I smashed my hand with a hammer!

Location 

The route is formed by the right side of the pillar just right of Play with Your Balls and directly right of Sea Robin. Walk off or rap from the chains.

Protection 

One set of cams from green Alien up to #2 Camalot. Maybe an extra yellow Alien in the traverse. (The placement is a little shallow).
