Description Put up your Dukes! Tricky as a snake in the grass, pardner. And, as the name implies, gritty, at least in the lower half of the route.
Location Second route on the right end of Walt's Wall.

| Great route, but not good enough rock for 4 stars imo. Technical movement all the way up leads to a cool dihedral, and a thin crux pulling out of the dihedral. Tricky for sure and felt a bit hard for the grade on the onsite. |

| Actually thought this was the best of the wall... If it weren't so gritty it would be higher up the list for many I suspect. |

| Cleaned up by now, in my opinion, though still not immaculate. Way cleaner than 5 years ago. Devious in places, with multiple cruxes. The most sustained & hardest overall climb at this cliff, well worth doing if this is your grade. |
