Description 

Borrowed from Todd Swain's Classic Rock Climbs: Red Rocks.
"Given as a Christmas present! Start 8' right of the last route (Death Before Decaf-12b), at a shallow, left-facing corner by a small pine and oak. Clip 6 bolts as you climb along seams to a chain anchor."

Really a 1 move route, rest of it goes at 10something. Crux is about 1/3 of the way up but the fun doesn't stop until you're at the anchors!


Location 

Follows obvious chalked up seam at a left-facing corner.


Protection 

6 bolts to chain anchor

This one isn't as hard as the grade given in the Swain book. Probably more like 10d. Makes a nice warm up.
