Description Burly, thuggish 5.11 leads to the first crux. After pulling the tricky .12a undercling traverse, pull up onto a slab to rest up for the second .12a crux; thin, powerful moves lead to big holds to pull through the roof to the anchors.
Location This is right of Howdy Doody Time, left of Double Dominatrix.
Protection 12 bolts to chains.

| Is this really 12 a/b? Seems soft, as far as Shelf and Flatirons standards, mayby BC standards.... |

| Kevin, you're just a pulling down machine. Great route with some really fun climbing on the lower half and the pumpy finish. |

| Well, I'll take that. Glad you guys had fun. |

| You're probably right, Kevin. 12a seems to be the going consensus. I'll go with that. |

| Regardless, one of the best routes in the Front Range. |
