Description 

A poor climb that shares an anchor with Wedding Day. Loose rock at the top and funky climbing on the rest, there's not much point in hopping on this unless you're really desperate and everything else nearby is occupied. It'd be a tough lead, but it's a very safe top rope.


Protection 

6 bolts to a bolted anchor

While there is some loose rock at the bottom of the pitch, the rest is of good quality with interesting movement. While I respect the above comment about the route, I found it to be pleasant and not a bad lead at all. Despite one or two loose holds down low and a mandatory mono, it's a climb worth trying if you're bored with Heinous.
