Starting the crux. The route moves left from here to a sidepull in a thin crack where the rock turns orange.

Above the crux on the 5.8 or so fun upper half.
At the crux, using the small sidepull on the left that is mentioned in the comments. The route to the right, Daily Grind, was put up on about 7/20/03 after some of the comments above, hence the confusion as to whether to go left or right at this crux. Now that Daily Grind is to the right, it's more obvious to go left here.<br> <br> Photo by Paul Rezucha.

Plotinus Wall, left side.
Smell the Coffee and The Daily Grind, Plotinus Wall
This climber did not know about moving left, and tried going straight up. It's possible--there are crimps--but much harder. He eventually went right.
Smell the Coffee is the left bolt line. The Daily Grind is the right bolt line.
Kelly on TR figuring it out!
