Notice the starting jug at the start. This is the...


Description 

This line is only 5.10a after you reach the first jug. At 6'4", you can just make the first move static. After the first move, which is protected by a bolt, follow fun patina face climbing protected by finger sized cams. A couple bolts protect the middle section, but save a .75 camalot to protect the moves to the anchors.

This would be a 4 star route, except for the height dependent first move.


Location 

This is the third route from the right, but the second route which has some bolts.


Protection 

Finger sized cams to #1 camalot
