Description 

Barbara's Midnight Missile is the left of the 2 sport climbs at the Sununu Place.

The climbing is crimpy most of the way; the crux is a sequence of 2 or three moves off of a fair-but-not-sinker pocket at a steeper section between the 2nd and 3rd bolts. I found the 3rd bolt fairly difficult to clip and maybe worth skipping entirely.

I am guessing the route name probably refers to the former first lady Bush, although I'm probably too young to get it.


Protection 

3 bolts to a 2-bolt anchor. (The old guide reports the hangers were stolen, but they are currently present.)
