Description 

The route starts just to the right of Mariscos Lambada directly over a block at the base of the cliff. The crux of this climb is definitely at the start. This makes getting to the second bolt a mental challenge because of the almost certain fall onto the block if missed. The bolt spacing on the route is not for the faint of heart, but if you are going to climb at Rifle....


Protection 

7 bolts to a two bolt anchor

How come I only found 6 bolts? Hence the scarry run out to the anchors.

The rap anchors need to be replaced on this route. Just as difficult as the .10c to the right?

Looks like at least one hold has broken off low, making this significantly harder - definitely harder than the 10c to the right.
