Description 

From the ground, face climb up and right past to bolts to a large flake. The crux of the climb is between the two bolts. Climb up the loose flake and dihedral to a belay (poor anchors). Pitch 2 is a steep, runout face, with loose holds. This climb has been given stars for quality in some guidebooks, but I think it's a terrible route.

Location 

This climb is about two-thirds of the way from Solid Gold, around left towards Hex Marks the Poot.

Protection 

standard rack and bolts, but there's not much protection on the second pitch
