Description

Climb LAB to the 5th bolt, but instead of going right on vicious underclings, diverge left to a crimp rail with horrendous feet. Heels and toes work well to keep you from falling. After some burlyness (I campused quite a few moves), pull onto the headwall and clip from a stellar jug. Keep it together for a couple more difficult moves before rendezvousing with the chains of Mojo.

Location

Left side of the glory hole. Start same as LAB

Protection

8 bolts to bolted anchor.
