Description 

The crux is at the fourth bolt, a series of balancy smears, more typical of granite face climbing than other routes on Beehive. The Voo guide describes them as "tricky footwork."

There are three high step moves to get to the crux, all 5.8/5.9.

Location 

This route climbs the arete at the right end of the cliff to the anchors for Rip Chords and Gypsie Fire.

Protection 

6 draws plus draws for the anchors.
