Description 

Climb a finger crack just right of After Shock. Move left to a right-facing dihedral when the finger crack ends. Follow this, then merge with Roll Bones and After Shock to the anchors. The first 10 feet or so is the crux. It then mellows out considerable after that.

Location 

This route is on the east side of the formation called Shock Rock in the Kellman guide just right of After Shock. To descend, rappel approximately 60 feet down the south or east sides from the two bolt anchor at the top of the formation.

Protection 

Standard rack looks good. We did not lead. We top roped it from the merger of this route and Roll Bones.
