Description

Make a few committing moves up to the first bolt, then pass a few bolts while tending up and left. From the fifth bolt move right a bit and follow a series of small sharp edges to a final move that obtains the last bolt. Easier climbing tends up and right to the top of Miscalculation.

Location

First route left of Miscalculation.

Protection

Bolts. It is possible to belay at the double bolts at the top of Miscalculation. However, doing so makes it a little scary for the person following. It is probably best to continue up on easy ground and belay at the obvious tree (slings, plus maybe some cams to 2").
