Description

It's doubtful this route will instill any magical powers, however, it does feature a beautiful headwall of fun, 5.10- pockets. Unfortunately, the fun bit is guarded by a diffiuclt boulder problem and some sharp crimps on the approach.

Stickclip the first bolt, then make crux moves to gain the undercut wall. Head left at the first horizontal break, where long reaches between sharp crimps lead to a sloping ledge. The rest is all gravy, hero pulling on great pockets.
