Interesting that a route so low on the quality meter was one of the earlier pitches bolted at Rifle. For connoisseurs of the truly awful, this is a must-do!
Moroni Blows is the spongy, green route in the very back of the Skull Cave, just between Cracked Open Sky and Daydream Nation. It climbs a sort of pillar to double-bolt anchors at a big hole.
The crux is at the anchor and involves upward slithering into the hole via moss clumps and barnacles. This route sees a lot of water, so be careful that the bolts don't pull out in your face!
It's actually cleaned up quite a bit...and it's not a bad route...every short person I know hates it, because they can't do that last big move to the hole...but everyone that is normal height likes it!
