Description From Huston's topo:
Start up the first two bolts of Secret Agent Man before stepping to right around arete and charging up the steep north face. Better than it looks. Good karma points to whoever installs chains at the top.
Location Starts up SAM and then steps around arete to the inside face.
Protection 9 Bolts. NO CHAINS! Perma biners on the last 2 bolts. NOT BOOTY BINERS.
More obvious line with the draws on it.

| Start on the arete, bring a pad or stick clip the first bolt (if you are into that sort of thing) and charge on good holds and moves to the top crux.
Bring a medium nut to back up th last bolt for a TR set up or if you go to the sport crag with out your rack tie a knot in a sling and use that for pro :) |

| I left a biner on the 2nd to last bolt so nobody will have to lower off one bolt. Already was a biner on the last bolt (probably Rhoads).
Great route, perhaps my favorite at Qual. Interesting and varied moves. |
