Description 

Do a powerful, body-tension-y boulder problem up to a big pocket by the 2nd bolt, cop a quick rest then do another, easier boulder problem to a really good rest before the roof. Climb the roof on big holds in bad, flaky rock then tiptoe up the face above to the anchors with lots of air beneath your heals.

A good sport route for T Wall, but doesn't get much traffic because it's not the magical grade.

Location 

The next sport route right of Twistin' in the Wind, in the Amphitheater.

Protection 

4 or 5 well-spaced bolts. You'll definitely want to stick clip the first one.
