Description Another decent link up. Climb The Pit to the second to last bolt before the chains. Diagonal left and finish on the nice orange stone that is the top of Derailed.
Location Climbs out the middle of the low Dry wall cave, sharing the start with The Pit. Heads left from the second to last bolt of The Pit and clip a few more bolts up to Derailed's anchor- the highest set of anchors on the left above the JJ memorial route.
Protection Bolts... about 7... lower off the chains. Stick clip the high first bolt.

| No knee bars for me but it's a size thing. Very good route. |

| I've only ever heard this called 13a and the route just left of it that isn't on the topo 13b. Easy easy for 13b, route left of it, solid 13b. |

| I think it's been sorted. This starts on The Pit and, yes, isn't 13b. Derailed has the funky start moves. |
