Description
This short climb is at the very toe of the Schultz's Ridge buttress. Look for the shallow corner with 3 bolts.
Make some moves on large holds to reach the first bolt. Clip it and then mantle onto a small ledge in the corner. The second bolt is difficult to reach from this stance if you're short. You can get some optional gear in the crack (thin) if you want. The crux is getting to the 3rd bolt and then it gets easy to the anchors. If you need beta just remember that the climb is called Superstem, not Superlieback.
