Bryan on Not on the First Date.


Description 

Climb slightly overhanging terrain up and to the left. Continue working up and right to a big horizontal crack. Crimp and pimp your way through the crux ( which is slightly harder than the grade because of a broken flake), then balance your way to the anchors.


Location 

Rico Suave buttress, just to the left of Rico Suave.


Protection 

Bolts and anchors.

This is a really nice climb! Well worth doing if you're in the area for the others. The crux after the 4th bolt is interesting and committing on lead since the holds don't improve much as you head into the slabby section to reach the shuts and you're a decent amount off the last bolt. There's a lot of crappy holds chalked up since this is easily toproped by many after doing Rico.
