Description 

Usually dry.
This route moves from one scooping flake to another scooping in the opposite direction, looks interesting, yields some fun moves, however it is not photogenic :(
Fun moves up to crux which is a little bit wierd, especially if you go too far right(route sucks you that way)
Good route for a warm up.
This route is also good for the beginner looking for their first 5.10, it is fun the moves need to be sussed and it has a clear crux.


Location 

Left route on the boulder between Triple Corners and Waimea.


Protection 

4 bolts to anchor.

Maybe I got all messed up on this route but I found it akward and hard for the grade, then again it was about 25 degrees out.
