Description 

How well you do on this route depends on whether you can suss out the tricky and wandering sequence and still reach the bolts.

Climb the face on crimpy holds to a small roof; pull the roof and continue to the anchors.


Location 

Jimmywood section; starts on the face to the right of the Bear Mountain Picnic arete.


Protection 

Four bolts, chain anchors.

I consider this to be one of the more poorly-bolted routes I've seen at Fosters as it doesn't seem to follow the natural climbing line. Be prepared for a nasty pendulum fall.

I have to agree the bolts don't really follow the natural line. Not a real good onsight route, there are lots of holds, many lead to a dead end. Weird but fun
