Description In an effort to add some more moderates to Heaven's Gate, I bolted this fun little line on the left side of the Emerald Isle.
Begin at the same start as Laura's Arete, but cut left after standing on the ledge to climb a series of interesting, left-trending jugs which lead to the chimney which is formed between the left wall and this one. Fight your way out of the compactor, and finish up right to black chains via a balancy crux.
Location On the left side of The Emerald Isle, this is the left-trending line of bolts left of Laura's Arete.
Protection 6 bolts to chain anchors.

| Nice work, Ben!! I try to take my girlfriend up there, but she can't climb anything, so it's cool to see some softer routes!! It will make the place a lot better (it's aready cool). Keep it up, Cowboy!!! |

| While easy, this route is home to great climbing on good stone. A little cold in the morning though! |
