BMOC. Late Nov 2007
Description Not a standard route for the wall... as in not sustained. Well defined crux at the small roof (15 foot mark) featuring double, wide horizontal pinches and a stab to a decent hold. Great 5.11 climbing to the anchors.
Location Located 8 feet right of Pork Tornado
Protection 6 bolts, three bolt anchor with chains

By TravisMelin From: La Crosse, WI Blacksburg, Va Nov 16, 2007 Route leads really nicely with varied climbing and a powerful crux.
By Kris Gorny Nov 27, 2007 rating: 5.12a Very cool route with a tricky crux down low and solid and fun 11 climbing higher up. As high quality as Hawaiian Bill or Pork Tornado.
By Chris treggE Administrator From: Madison, WI Sep 8, 2008 rating: 5.12a Great route Travis et al. Agree about the quality comparisons Gorny. Also thanks for the excavation to make the base flat, looks like a ton of work.
By Remo From: Madison, WI Sep 28, 2008 rating: 5.12a This is a really fun route. Another great 5.12 for the Meader wall.
