Description Suggest change

Climb past the schist band and attain the center crack. The crack takes good gear and protects well. Follow the crack until it ends then move up and left to a double set of bolts, clip and move up and rt to the 2 second bolt (not seen from previous bolt, do not go left, which is the weakness). continue up attaining the anchors, note that these are the only bolts on the route besides the anchors, hence PG-13 rating.

Location Suggest change

This route is found on the Middle Marker formation. From the Emancipation pullout, Middle Marker is the major formation seen in front of you, as you are traveling away from Mt Rushmore.
