[Hide Comment] I'm sure someone can put up a better description of this great route. I believe this route is the third or fourth line to the left of Cinderella Story. Aug 4, 2013

[Hide Comment] This is the first route to the right of teed off.

It has perma draws.

A 1 move lower crux leads to jugs, then pull a small bulge and prepare for a really amazing run out crux on impeccable rock. One of my favorite routes at Golfwall. Aug 7, 2013

[Hide Comment] The 5.11 with the runout is called "Fairway Direct" in the older "Rock Climbing Colorado" book. This book calls the 5.10 to its left "In the Rough". Oct 13, 2015
