Name that route by description PNW edition

A new addition, this is now the most difficult climb at the crag.  It's been over a decade since this grade has been established in the area. 

It shares a name with a British Hardcore band.

The Gallows.

Dang!  That was quick!

@Portland Rob is up!

Ha - got one! Only because it's my local crag! Okay, here we go:

Three burly boulder problems split by 2 rests make what would otherwise be a very difficult sport climb somewhat more manageable at mid 5.11, despite the additional psychological burden about falling onto the second ledge, which is mostly unfounded.

HINT (newly edited with bold):

When the then-36 year old FA installed the bolts, he was threatened by a new and overzealous park ranger with a vandalism citation.

Time for another hint?

The FA is a guidebook author and fixture of his home crag - giving a guided tour each fall. (I've also added a grade to the original clue)

Boy, I didn't think this would be this hard - okay a new hint every hour or so until this gets solved:

1. This route is currently inaccessible due to construction.

2. This route is neighbor to perhaps the most famous 5.14 in the world.

3. Located a short walk NE of *Pass

4. A limerick:

On display had been a little caged sandal

Graffitied by a balding man, Randall

The art display ruined

The exhibitor swooned

They'd been hit by a ___________

(And that's got to be enough clues!!)

Bump!

Just because I’m impressed by your literary efforts, Rob:  Middle Aged Vandal

Ah, sweet relief! Thank you Hye! The burden of 2 days with no guesses was too much stress for me! Your turn!

Apologies if this is a repeat.  

I don't know anyone who hasn't stood on the tree branches for at least a second to contemplate the crux bulge protectable by #1 cams on the second pitch of this three-pitch moderate linkup on the WA basalt monolith.  I'll take any variation on the name, if people are still debating it.

Young Warriors?

Right crag, wrong route.  Link-up, not a multipitch route, per se.  Harder moderate than YW.

Dod's Dastardly Jam?

Yes!  You’re up, Anthony.

This multipitch route was first established in the 90s by a legendary climber (who was known, among other things, for his FAs at Smith, his early efforts on freeing a very historical route, as well as being the belayer for the FFA of the said historical route). Despite being pictured on the cover of a Metolius catalog, this route was quickly forgotten. It did not see its second ascent until over a decade later when a local climber came across the catalog, reached out to the first ascensionist for beta, and brought it to its current classic status.

Nice references to the Nose!

Found my fellow climbing history nerd! You are up Garrett.

Is this a direct quote from Cascade Rock?

Nope, don't want to get sued by Blake so there were some careful rewording there

I had previously considered using one of Brooke's smith routes in this thread with some of those similar hints. 

Since the responses to this clue may push us over the 1000 responses limit, make sure you start a new thread if that is the case! 

Onward- 

A moderate, but adventurous route that isn't too far from the city. The formation is named for exactly what it is geologically, and this route likely got its name from some tasty snacks along the way up. Not the most creative names but such is WA- Index, Exit 32, Exit 38....
