Description 

Stick clip the first bolt. Move up past the first bolt and place a 4" cam behind the flake extended out with an over the shoulder sling. Climb past several more bolts up a series of slopey ramps to a steep headwall (the crux). Work right a bit then commit to the mantle. The climbing is a cruise to the top above the mantle move. Makes a good hard person warmup route.


Location 

This route starts above a series of boulders that step down a level. Likewise this is the sixth route on the right side of the Gash as you walk in.


Protection 

11 Bolts, 4" Cam & Sling; Anchor Chains
