Description 

Interesting route with an adventurous feel. The first pitch is something of a change from the typical Shortoff "steep pulls".
p1: Climb a waterstreak with three bolts and some gear to a stance near or in the large chimney to your left. 5.9, 100'
p2: Shull and Lambert's book says to "move right" to a "steep, bucket-infested wall". We did this, but maybe we didn't move far enough right. And while the wall was certainly bucket-infested, it was also lichen-infested. Good gear and climbing nonetheless. Belay when the terrain becomes ledgy enough to provide a comfortable stance. 5.9, 140'
p3: Continue up to the top over easy terrain. 5.6, 50'

Location 

Continue walking left past White Russians. You will pass a steep, intimidating wall with some interesting aid lines/hard free routes. Lost and Found is just around the corner from these, located just right of a large chimney/corner.

Protection 

Standard Shortoff rack with emphasis on small-medium cams.
