Description 

A decent route with a harder-than-it-looks-from-the-ground crux. Don't cheat by stemming out onto the ramp on the right.


Location 

Climb starts on the south side of Queen Scepter. Follow bolts up the face to crux bulge on the southeast arete, then thin, lower angle climbing to the anchor. Try not to cheat by stepping out onto the ramp that leads to Whistling Idiot.


Protection 

Lots of bolts and a 2 bolt anchor. Rap the route to descend.
