Description
The anchors of this route were first put in by Mike Cronin. He gave up on it and I started cleaning it. I put in the top two bolts and then I gave up on it. Blake Workman finally came in and cleaned and bolted the rest of it. Then, I came back, and with Blake's permission, managed the first ascent.
The route turned out to be excellent. The moves off the ground are powerful and they are immediately followed by a fingery crux. Thankfully, there is a decent rest after the crux, because the top, although it is easier than the bottom, can pack a punch.
Location
This route is the 2nd route from the right. It is to the right of The Encore and to the left of The Rambler.
Protection
bolts (7 maybe), cold shut anchors.
