Description 

This is a pretty classic Moore's Wall route. The crux may be just getting past the 12- boulder problem start, don't blow it here. So, fire off the start, get up about 15 feet, place first good pro, bomber gear, long sling. More mellow climbing brings you to a roof crux with tricky gear placements, good gear, just tricky to see your placements. Pull the roof and then continue to anchors on a pumpy jug haul with some good gear of #1/#2 size camalots. NC anchor of a couple of wires (cannot recall if there are hexes or of the wires are simply through some rock...but it's solid)


Location 

Located at the North End of Moore's Wall.


Protection 

Trad gear, mostly small cams. .5 camalot to a 2 camalot range.

Strange rating. An 11c with a 12a start.

I think the rating is a bit of comprimise. The start is 12, but the rest is probably no harder than 11a/b. So they call it 11c...
