Description 

The left side of Thoroughfare. An eliminate, sure, but a fun one. Climb up the left crack of Thoroughfare, starting in the corner and avoiding the right hand crack. From what I can tell, it joins Thoroughfare towards the top. Sequency and burly crux with poor feet.

I've heard this climb referred to both as "Lake Shore Drive" and as "LSD", which I had assumed referred to lysergic acid diethylamide. On the Extremist's Guide, it's also referred to as Left Side Direct.

Location 

Left of Thoroughfare, same TR setup.

Protection 

TR or DL rack.
