Clipping the 3rd bolt.


Description 

The left of the two curent lines on the east face. Starts off the same landing as "We Have Liftoff!" Slightly tricky start leads to a big stance. A cruxy move or two (a little inobvious) leads to the left. The last bolt is in the wrong place and will be moved.


Protection 

4 bolts and chains

Not bad climbing, but nothing super special, either.

Yeah I'm not gonna lie.Being the first route I ever put up I was expecting it to be 5.7 or 5.8.But after I got the F.A. I was like"dang this is NOT a 5.7! heh heh.But I think it's gonna be a good warm up climb for the rest of the routes up there.The whole area is good with a lot of good climbs for any level climber.

The start is a little tough and inobvious, but there are two major ledges to campout in. It's a little cruxy after the first big ledge, but one or two moves puts you over it. My wife made it look much easier than I did.
