Description 

Climb up the steepish sandy start to a stance underneath a bulge. Move up and left through the bulge. A weirdo crux brings you to a no-hands ledge. Move right up easy Sandy terrain to the chains. Kind of a one move wonder climb. A fall while clipping the bolt underneath the bulge would result in decking onto uneven terrain. An added bolt wouldn't be a bad Idea. The route is mostly sandy excluding the crux. Maybe with a new bolt and more traffic it would be better. Bolt line in between "Arachnid Tendencies" and "Talking with God."

whew - youve got to work pretty hard to earn your 12c merit badge on this one. the first two bolts are just far apart enough that you get a healthy dose of ground fall potential (while climbing chossy rock), and the crux sequence is a tricky, powerful couple of pulls from crappy holds. this thing gave me a tweaked finger when nothing else has for a year. it's a decent route with a couple of classic, red-wing-atypical moves on it. i just wish someone would replace the very rusty bolts.
