[Hide Comment] Climb is located on Sunshine Wall "Near End" to the west of the dog filter just before you reach coyote wall. Climb has great protection at crux move, pulling over the bulge. Great hands and feet, can connect to "The Manxome Foe (5.10a)" or "Duress (5.9)" May 7, 2013
[Hide Comment] Bolts need replacement, especially the first. Apr 28, 2014

[Hide Comment] Pretty easy, but may be intimidating to the 5.8 leader, with it's mid way bulge, juggy holds await. Don't fall too much, the rusty 1/4" machine bolts look worse as every year goes by. Feb 8, 2016
[Hide Comment] second that regarding the bolts Feb 28, 2016

[Hide Comment] This climb is simple fun. Worth hitting. Nov 14, 2017
[Hide Comment] There's also a jug about two moves up that's broken and clicking...not sure if it's ready to break, but it's loose. Jun 4, 2018
