Description Start to the right of a large crack (Penchant). Undercling and crimp up past a couple of bolts to a bit of broken rock. Decipher the moves wandering left and then right of bolt line to the anchors.
Location The right side of the "Cop Out" wall. I believe the only fully bolted line on the right hand side.
Protection Bolts and anchors.

| Where does this route go? An '81 topo showing Dance With the Devil, FA by "Smith", seems to show a different line. Wondering if the bolted line is a different climb and "Dance" is more right. Help please. |

| Tom that is intriguing..hmmm. |

| Supposedly "Dance" was a trad line that was retro-bolted. I noticed very little if any gear on this route... |

| OK.. after further discussion with Bernard and based on my vague memory of the FA the right most bolted route on this wall is a Mark Cole route that goes somewhere in the 12b/c range. Name escapes me. How does that sound? Anyone?? |

| I don't know the history/route names, but the crux of this line can't be in the mid twelve range. I dogged it badly, but it's definately mid 11....maybe 11+ in 100 degrees. |

| I stand corrected. And after recently doing this route I agree with the 11b/c rating. |

| This will feel 12b/c at the 4th bolt if you go the wrong way, but definitely mid-11 if done correctly. Bolts 3 and 4 both made the route confusing. They are definitely several feet off the climbing line. |
