Description
This is the first route to the left of Imaginary Voyage (before the crawl-thru), which follows 4 bolts near the arete (eventually you roll onto the arete). Retrobolted. The original line (graded 5.9) starts in the middle of the face, and slings a knob, before heading considerably to the right. The new bolted version starts low and to the right, getting some exposure on funky bouldery moves (easier if you're shorter) before heading up.
Note that Miramontes and other guidebooks have Black Plastic Streetwalker switched with Lessons from Laeger. Lessons from Laeger starts farther left, over near the wide crack.
