Description
Hands down, one of the contenders for the best route at World Wall I! Initial cruxes include the technicalities of Propaganda (.12c). From the anchors of Propaganda, tackle the bouldery bulge that leads up and through a small and techy dihedral. Don't blow the clip at the top of this corner, as this will equate to BIG AIR. Continue through easier, yet big moves to a rest. Get the heart rate down, for the next 25ft is a pumpfest leading all the way to anchors, which are closely guarded by a slopey rail.

Protection
This route is fixed beyond Propaganda proper.
Contrary to the guidebook, you can lower from this route with a FULL 70m rope.
Since the route is 35m long it makes sense to be careful and tie a knot in the end of your rope.
