Description

One of the best problems in the Valley. A beautiful line on perfect holds. Climbed back in 2001 by Nate Woods, this problem just saw its first repeat almost 10 years later.

From a good undercling/edge work your way onto the big lightning bolt shaped diagonal sloping rail and follow a series of sloping humps and depressions. A tricky move at the end of the big rail will set you up with hands matched on a thin rail. Head straight up the face on thin holds to the sloping highball mantle shelf.
