Description
As you approach Cactus Cliff from the left end, the West, there is an inset wall with aretes on both sides. The left of these is Jumpin' the Gun. This interesting line starts on the face left of the arete and gains the blunt arete at mid height. Interesting climbing on edges and pockets gun for a cruxy bulge near the top. I thought that the route had a lot of continuity on largely bullet-proof stone. Might be a bit over-rated at 5.11d, but stringing it all together is probably worth the "d". A very good line.
