Dennis Jump on the first ascent of Sloppy Shoes.

Description 

This excellent sport route is down right from the "Guide's Route" and immediately right of the route named "Unknown 5.8" here. Start below a right-angling groove. Layback past a leaning crack (#2 Camalot) to a short bottoming crack. Work up the shallow groove with delicate smears and edges past 3 bolts. Finish up left on easier rock past another bolt to the final bolt on "Unknown 5.8". Surmount a short headwall to a 2-bolt anchor on a shelf.


Protection 

5 quickdraws, #2 Camalot, also another small Camalot or large wire for the nervous.

The water groove felt the same as the 11mile dome east face direct. nice and thin edging and smearing.

Very fun route. It is possible to top-rope this climb after leading the 5.8 just to the left (unknown 1).
