Description 

This is the left bolted line on the SE face. The beginning is bouldery, but small nuts protect the initial moves well. It eases up with widely spaced bolts, so bring extra gear. This shares the anchors with Subterrainian and Double Standard, and is the quickest way to set up a toprope for those 2 climbs.


Protection 

2 draws for anchors. 4 draws on the way and a small selection of small to medium nuts.

You will wanna bring gear for this route. The first bolt is a long ways up. A small nut works for the initial moves but you may want to place another piece, as well, cause you have a definite ground fall if u don't make that first bolt.

Not a bad cimb, did thid today with lots of sun, but plenty of wasps as well until it was in the shade! I used 3 pieces of gear on this, two below the first bolt and one towards the top.
