Description 

This problem is remarkably similar to the White Rasta in Joshua Tree in both difficulty and style of moves, but it is not nearly as scary. Start standing on the left side of the arete and make powerful and technical layaway moves up the arete until it is possible to grab the top of the boulder at about 15'. Mantel over with some difficulty. The crux of this one is getting off the ground but it is exciting all the way through the mantel.

Location 

Look for a tall gold overhanging wall with a striking right arete. This boulder is slightly west of the main concentration of problems at the Kitty.

Protection 

A couple of pads and spotters are probably a good idea.
