| To avoid an unnecessary pump and perhaps a bit cussing and spitting, climb past the anchors to clip them. Other than that, this is one of the best 5.10s in the canyon. |

| The new guidebook lists this as 80 feet, but that is incorrect. A 50 meter rope will not make it down. Great route. |

| The first clip is a lil' spooky. When in doubt stick clip, or be glad you have long arms. |
