Description 

I'm a little uncertain about this route. It seems like the obvious starts are either in the chimney on the left (probably not Bob's intent, and definitely not 12a), or to start on Sister of Mercy and then go left, but that's probably also a little soft and doesn't jive with the first bolt. It may be that you're supposed to campus up the overhanging arete.

The rock and climb is superb higher on the arete. My wife liked this one, because it's a rare arete that's not exposed.

Location 

It is in the alcove across from the Virgin.

Protection 

Bolts.
