Description
A good intricate route on the slab between Quick Draw McGraw and Heart and Sole (it's harder and scarier than either of these climbs).
Start by a yucca. A couple of thin moves lead to the crux (bolt); a very tenuous step up on a crystal leads to sustained moves. Go left (bolt), more tricky stuff gets over another steep section trending rightwards (bolt). Up and marginally left to the last bolt, then a frantic dash (5.9 R) to the top.
