Description

Although no harder than 11c, this would be an impressive onsight! What's Biting Me? follows chunky rock for the first 30 feet until it blends into nice, smooth limestone. After clipping the first bolt, cryptic and small holds get you to a jug to make the second clip. Follow better (but even more hidden) holds to make the third clip and set yourself up for the puzzling crux. Three more bolts and juggy but sustained movement deposits you at the double chain anchors above.

Location

Follow the middle trail to the Bank which ends 30 left of the Surreal Estate Wall, just below Staying Power.
What's Biting Me? sits 50 feet to the left, just left of a wide crack and Thunder Thighs. Follow bulging rock to a small left-facing corner and finish below a large roof that caps the entire formation.
