Description

This route is fairly short, with some easy moves right up to the crux. Grab a left hand pinch, fingerlock and handjam. Make a bizarre mantle move and yer pretty much done. This is a good climb to push your limit on, as the fall from the crux is super clean.

Location

This route is sandwiched between Chain Mail and Rauch Factor. Easily distinguishable by the heavily chalked crack.

Protection

Fully bolted. You may want a cam (0.5 camalot) after doing to the crux.

Difficult for the grade IMO, especially considering the crag. It's harder than both the "12a" routes at Ozone. Great fun and a burly crux move. Sep 9, 2015

I agree with Micah, If the route is being graded based on the crux alone it should definitely be a 12, if its being averaged out with the easy climbing before and after than its an 11d.
Furthermore, the fall is only clean if you have a really attentive belay, an extra foot of unnecessary slack and your gonna bang the shit our of your knee or shin on the mini roof like I did. Jan 30, 2017

I think the route is easy for the grade if you stay out of the crack at the crux and stay on the crimps to the right. Maybe the only way if you're shorter Feb 11, 2018
