Description 

This bolted line right of Black & Tan isn't in the book, but is an obvious line.

Climb a committing lieback start to reach the first bolt. This first hard part can be protected with a small cam. Move right under a small overhang, then head up to reach the second bolt. Pass another roof and climb thin face to the top.


Location 

The bolted line right of Black & Tan ; it is the 4th line with bolts from the left end of Leaning Boulder Wall.
A small rock at the base has the name and rating.


Protection 

A #1 TCU or #0.3 camalot to 5 bolts, to a 2-bolt anchor.
The anchor is not equipped for lowering (at least, not yet), so the last climber should rappel from the next climb to the left, or walk off to the left.

Maybe a new Harrison Holthouse route.
