Description This starts below the scooped out area, left of Jailbait, climbing past the silica snakes. A couple of fun moves before it moves into Jailbait, 30 feet up.
Protection S&M share the roof and above with Jailbait, so bring whatever you deem necessary for that part. Down low, micro-nuts are necessary, if you can find the spots.

| After the business part of S&M rather than moving right to join Jailbait one can continue straight up to a short headwall with dish in it. After the dish, step left to a nice finger crack and continue up eventually joining the chains for Jailbait. We called this the D&S finish as it make a nice extension to S&M. It is of similar difficulty and pro to that of Jail Bait. |

| Yeah, this is better as essentially its own line, joining Climb and Punishment for only its last 10 or so feet (hence the two stars). The serious climbing protects better with HBs than regular brass or steel (Peenuts might work better too), but still a good chance they’ll rip and you’ll deck if you blow the crux. |
