Blackhole.


Description 

This is the Red route in the picture.

Sit start low in the cave, right next to a little black boulder, on a flake that looks unstable but is tough as iron.

Pull up and lock off hard with your right hand and move out to an awesome incut crimp, bump up and left to a better crimp. Throw a drop knee and shoot up into the crack above, a very low percentage move. Hold that guy with everthing you've got and setup on a slippery, slopey crimp left of the crack.

Setup your feet and go left, out and around the bulge to a sloper


Location 

This line is found about 20 ft. to the right of the Project, next to a black boulder far underneath the overhang.
The starting hold is pretty umistakeable, since it's the only feasible starter.

It's the same start as Wormhole, too.


Protection 

A pad, and a spotter for that last move.
