Description Not as hard as it looks and always impresses the neophytes on Mozart's. A dance up the arete. A sidepull for the left and pockets for the right, with multiple foot switches, lead to a critical heel hook on the left which allows for a committing throw for the big jug - then do a nervy pull over the top on small put positive enough holds - downclimb using the tree to the right.
Location Big boulder directly opposite Mozart's Wall - the southwest edge.
Protection Pad and spotters

| Is there a direct problem here? Using only the pockets? |

| Jon, yes there is, I've seen Aaron Sandlow do it and Michael Reardon work it, he told me he thought it was about V6. It has a fairly knarly finish. |

| As an unusual variation you can start the Mozart's Traverse from the left to just before the tree then leap for the start of Quickstep, and finish up that. |
