Lance Bateman on Life on your feet.


Description 

This route is on the left side of the Bong Eater Buttress just right of "Desperado" the 5.8 chimney. Start by soloing up a short chimney to the ledge with trees below the route. Layback the right side of Desperado, then continue up the lieback flake as it gets more difficult. When the flake runs out, thin face climbing on micro edges continues to the anchors.


Protection 

Quickdraws. Six bolts leads to a two bolt anchor with chains.

I was waiting at the park-n-ride for my partner when you were drilling that route. I was hoping you would post it. Thanks.
