Location

City of Rocks Idaho. Upper Breadloaves West. Start just right of "Bad Crack", about 140' left of "Aspen Leaf".

Protection

6 or 7 bolts to a chain anchor.

[Hide Comment] Just a couple of 5.8ish moves. Some of them are height dependent. Almost zero approach and a nice aspect for catching afternoon sun late in the day. May 18, 2014
