Description
This is basically the first route you see when you arrive at The Hood. It is a multi cruxed action packed route. The route starts steep and bouldery for the first half, and then ends with a technical face climbing section, complete with a weird undercling slabby rock over move kinda thing.
Location
This is the leftmost route that starts inside the Corrosion cave. Clip the first two draws and head right. Head up at the fourth draw.
Protection
Bolts, and probably fixed draws
