Description Off Guard (aka GWB, Great White Bullshitter) ascends the face just left of Cool Thing. A left hand on the arete sends the route. Fun moves. Solid stone.
Protection Eight draws and a rope. Shares anchor with Cool Thing.

| Fer gosh sakes, I's juss un averege climer but dis un feels a wee bit 'ard fer a 9 even with that uh leff hand. Specially affer doin' Power & Lies. Dat pointy rok on da leff makes it not too awful to start. |

| An excellent line; much more difficult than 5.9. There's a hard move to the first bolt; be careful or stick clip it. Delicate thin face climbing and a mantel past the fifth bolt. |

| Super fun route, close bolts, tight moves, be sure to get the arete hold though! |

| Maybe a hold broke off or something, but this is not a 9. It is however a fun line and worth doing. |
