Description 

Start pulling on a right facing flake (dont cheat by going right - use the flake) then clip the 2nd bolt with nice holds then find your way to the only pocket on the climb - 3rd bolt. You get a huge rest at bolt 4. then comes 2 beautiful pinchers at the small overhang - clip - then find the sidepull to a sloper to a crimper, reach for a nice right hold using the undercling after that you have easy climbing to the chains. This climb has it all. It's solid 12a and simply beautiful.


Location 

This climb is located at the WatchTower. Its the 4th climb from the right. Just look for the right facing small flake feature for the start. Well protected except the last part going to the chains.


Protection 

6 bolts to chains. There is a small runout to the chains but it's easy.
