Description 

A little runout, this climbs the wall directly beneath a juniper tree and right of a wide crack. The crux is a little spicy with a bolt at your feet, but shake out on a good foot and hand. Then do a sidestep to a jug.


Location 

This is beyond the Future Wall next to The Lesser Of Two Evils.


Protection 

4 bolts, 2 bolt anchor.

This route should be avoided. Sling anchor on weak tree, no rings or biners.

The last time I looked at this route, it appeared that the first hanger had been flattened. I agree, not the best route at Shelf.

Consider this post a "like" of the two posts above. Weird, poorly protected climbing on chossy rock (up high) with no anchor except for a dead juniper. There are much better routes at Shelf at this grade.
