Description 

Follow the huecos up the black streak right of Pumping Huecos. Interesting moves with big pockets that its not clear how to use lead one through a fun steep section, which is reminiscent of their harder and easier counterparts on Pumping Huecos and Hollywood Tim, respectively. A well-protected thin move follows the steep section, and leads to a (1-bolt) anchor that could serve as a useful directional for toproping this route. Rather than lowering off a single bolt, it is sensible to continue up and right over easier terrain here, clipping the top bolt of Mad Dogs and Englishmen to the Hollywood Tim 2-bolt anchor.

Any info from those in the know regarding the history of this climb is appreciated, of course.


Location 

This climb begins 10' right of Pumping Huecos, following bolts up a black streak.


Protection 

6 bolts to the 2-bolt anchor for Hollywood Tim. The last bolt is also shared with Mad Dogs and Englishmen.
