Description 

Thin, somewhat awkward moves off the ground are the crux, and after the second bolt it's much easier. Higher, pass a crack (Black Powder) and finish with a spectacular lieback/mantle directly onto the ledge with anchors.

Location 

This is the bolted route just right of Black Powder and left of Finger Crimping Good.

Protection 

5 bolts, chain anchors
