Description 

Felt like the crux was right at the start. Great climb. Difficulty might depend on climber's height. Felt like a good Eldo 5.6 at my height (5'11"). Loose rock and sand fill the cracks on this route.

Location 

The route begins about 15-20 feet to the left of 'Prime Time Climb' on the Tombstone area. Descend by walking up from the anchor to a juniper tree which can be slung for a rap descent. The other option is to walk down the ridge to the top of the Cracker Jack walk-off ledge.

Protection 

Small cams nuts offered adequate pro. Build an anchor up top for your follower and try not to knock any of the loose rock down on your belayer.
