Description 

Despite appearances this technical route is actually quite good and climbs like an extended boulder problem with lots of movement for it's short length.

Scramble up to the starting ledge, clip the 1st bolt and head up utilizing the twin offset seams. Higher when the seams end an engaging sequence of small edges and technical footwork works left then back right to gain gradually better holds and the anchors.

Not your typical Hungover Wall as it's only vertical and has mostly thin holds, but a welcome change of pace nonetheless.

Location 

Just right of Pressure Drop .

Protection 

3 bolts, bolted anchor (shared w/Pressure Drop )
