Description This route is located in the Entrance area, to the right of Captain America. It is a good route up a slab split by a crack. Go up the slab to the left of the crack to the first bolt. Step right at the bolt or slightly above and straight up to anchors up top.
Protection 5 (4?) bolts, bolted anchor.

| Slabby and thin from bottom to top, very challenging for the grade, and a great mental warm-up. |

| A good lead climb for someone looking for technical yet beginner lead climbing. Balance is key. |

| I agree with Amato, challenging for the grade. Great friction at the top. |

| I agree with the comments about challenging for the grade. Definitely the hardest of the 8s we did. |

| Probably closer to 5.9 slab but one can always bail to the right into a crack if the harder section at the top gets too scary. More like a 5.7 finish this way. |
