Description 

First lead in a 32 degree downpour of sleet! Knowing Chris one would also assume he did it in bare feet!

This line ascends the cliff from the lowest point of the meadows, down in the pit between the slabs.
Interesting moves that might be hard for the grade start you out. Crimps and palming can be used in conjunction on the starting section, keep an open mind and this will go easier. Then you get up to the slab above and enjoy the best climbing in all of the Meadows Area.


Location 

Start from the pit right of Lies and Propaganda.

fun route... the slab above is bolted in spicy fasion (which is nice but just be ready if you are not happy to use your feet)...

The combination of the balancey lower crux and the upper slab make for a very interesting route! Real good.

I agree it is like two completely different routes in one. I also thought the top slab portion is very runout and pretty scary if you aren't totally into slab. However, it was a fun climb and I'd do it again. The bottom section was a really fun puzzle to figure out.
