Description
Cold Fusion is a good mixed route of bolts and gear with the crux being located on the first pitch.
P1: Follow bolts up a steep slab angling left, this is the crux. (5.10c)
P2: Climb a gear protected corner straight up to a small overhang. Pull the overhang and continue past a bolt to the anchor. (5.9)
P3: Follow another bolted pitch to a ledge and anchor. (5.10b)
