Description A nice face climb that requires a good variety of moves. Follow the line of six bolts that angles slightly left. The left side of the overlap at the top of the climb is expanding so use care. Also be extremely careful not to knock any loose rock (there is lots!) off the tree ledge at the top of the climb.
Location SBAAP starts 25' to the left of the route Dedication. (Check the Webster guidebook for details on finding Dedication, and then move left.) Rappel off of this one or climb an upper wall route such as: Dr. Leakey I Presume ( 5.9+R)
Protection Bring six draws and a #2 camalot for the overlap at the top. Belay from a tree with slings and rap rings on a nice ledge tree ledge.

| A hold broke off of this one last month while I was climbing it, just above the fourth bolt. I don't know if this has changed the difficulty. |

| Great fun. IMO it is a solid .8 and looks much more deceiving from the ground. I was/am super concerned of that block at the top. Belayer/climber should be very cautious... |
