BETA PHOTO: It's the splitter in the center of the photo
Description
This route is just right of The Mousetrap and to the left of Cat Walk. It's listed as route #7 in Bloom's guidebook. It has great movement and lots of variability, but it was hard giving this route more than two stars on a wall loaded with classics even by the Creek's standards.
Start in a thin corner to gain a ledge. From here pull a few chimney moves and climb a straight-in thin hands splitter to some anchors.
Protection
I used microcamalots for the start and for the chimney, up to a .5 camalot, the upper splitter takes several #1 camalots and a few #2 camalots.
Not a classic but there are some interesting moves. Different from the typical IC crack. The upper crack is thin hands but there are some useful face features on the face to the right of the crack to take the edge off a bit.
