Description 

Easy steep slabs to a ledge suitable for considering your priorities. Pull through a wild roof move (think knee bar above the head, transitioning to something that can only be described as a "drop-knee-bar") and resume moderate climbing.

Location 

Furthest right route on the Rollercoaster wall, starting next to the wooden railing.

Protection 

Nothing until after the crux roof (30-40' off the deck), angle up left to the Coffee & Cornflakes / Scream Machine / To the Boys in Ketchum anchors. It is possible (and worth your time) to toprope from these chains, but make sure to place a directional to avoid a huge swing from the crux.
