Description 

The route is the second line of bolts as you work your way up the steep trail and over the obvious boulder that is in the middle of the trail.

Fantastic climbing with a little bit of everything: Jugs, sidepulls, crimps, underclings, technical reachy moves it's got it all. Watch the footwork!


Protection 

6 bolts; two bolts at the top for anchor (quicklinks and SMC rolled aluminum rap rings—don't lower through the rings).

Hard for the grade, but I think due to the bolting. Still a classic climb.

First two bolts are a little run out but on easy terrain. The business end of the route is between bolt 3 and 5. Excellent crimpers and side pulls with a few jugs along the way. Don’t forget to utilize a knee bar half way up to gain a much needed rest before pushing through the upper crux. This is such a fun route with exquisite moves and body positions all the way up.

Think its hard for short climbers... great route though, don't blow the second clip

One of the best in bcc. The FA dudes may have been short on bolts when putting this one up, but it adds to the flavor. The move to the hole jug is awesome, and I found a sweet one finger pocket hole of sorts to clip the 2nd to last bolt. Hard for 11b, but super quality.
