Description Suggest change

This is five routes right of the red buttress of Crimpson Candy, just left of the distinctive fin of Relampago.

Start at a low red coldshut, which is shared with the start of Funkdemental. Charge straight up the initial face (Funkdemental breaks left), moving right on a substantial ledge. Follow parallel finger cracks on the upper face, with clips to the left. The last bolt is too far left for a comfortable clip from the cracks and/or pockets. Once this crux bolt is clipped, tiptoe left on thin feet to a small left-facing corner/flake.

The route seemed hard for the "official" 5.10b rating -- I feel it is closer to 5.10c.

8 bolts including a retrobolt.
